Frank Doy never wanted a fight. But he can’t walk away from this one. Not now his oldest friend is under threat. 

It starts like any other day . . . Frank’s out walking on the beach, when a motor boat comes speeding into view. Closing in fast. “You! In the boat — now!” barks the stranger onboard, waving a gun at Frank. 

And that’s not even the strangest part. 

The goons whisk Frank away to meet their boss — and it’s someone Frank knows. Formidable oligarch Leon Podolsky. He and Frank go way back. And now he’s reaching out for one last favour. 

Leon’s beloved sister, Olga, is in grave and imminent danger. 

Frank remembers Olga. Of course he does. Beautiful, kind-hearted Olga. She couldn’t be less like her brother if she tried. 

But that doesn’t matter to Leon’s enemies. Hellbent on vengeance, they’re closing in on Olga’s ramshackle old place, out in the lonely Czech countryside. 

Keeping her safe out in the wilderness, besieged by enemies at every turn, sounds like mission impossible to Frank. 

But he knows he’s got to protect Olga. Or die trying . . . 

Perfect for fans of Lee Child, Michael Connelly, Neil Lancaster, Matt Hilton and Mark Dawson.
