**Celebrating 100 years of Douglas Reeman. Discover the master of the naval adventure thriller.*

********************************************************************************************************
1970: Lieutenant-Colonel Mike Blackwood appears to have been murdered in Cyprus. Disillusioned and grieving for his distinguished father, Lieutenant Ross Blackwood believes there is no future for him in the Corps. The Royal Marines have been reduced in strength, and their role in a modern world, after so splendid a tradition, diminished to policing and paperwork.

But Ross remains a Blackwood and a Royal Marine, and the loyalty and dedication of a Blackwood to the Corps sustain him from vicious guerilla warfare in Malaysia through the moral and political minefields of Northern Ireland, where one man's terrorist is another's patriot, to the South Atlantic, and a conflict as bloody as it is unpredictable.

And he learns, as every Blackwood has before him, that jungle or moor, insurrection or invasion, mere courage is not enough. Survival and victory balance on the knife edge of destiny...

The gripping culmination of multi-million copy bestselling author Douglas Reeman's Blackwood saga, spanning 150 years in the history of a great seafaring family. Unputdownable and guaranteed to have you hooked, this is perfect for fans of Clive Cussler, Bernard Cornwell and Wilbur Smith.
