Description
To some people Mike
Devon is a highly trained counter-terrorism operative. To others, he's little
more than a Government-sanctioned assassin. Either way, Devon always takes the
line of least resistance to get the job done, particularly when he's faced with
two al-Qaeda leaders preparing to unleash a new terror campaign against America
and its European allies. But Devon also has to deal with a sinister Russian oil
billionaire, pulling the strings in a determined bid to return to the days of
East-West conflict.
Devon has to fight
his way through a plot to blow up the Eiffel Tower, and stop the assassination
of some of the world's leading businessmen in a roller-coaster ride that
becomes highly personal, and threatens the lives of the people he loves most.
The stakes couldn't
be higher.
Review
By aro
Another thriller by
Joe McCoubrey! This takes place during the "Troubles" of Northern
Ireland and brings you along on Mike Devon's journey around the globe to catch
the bad guys once again! During this entire book I could feel myself tensing up
with anticipation of what would happen to Devon and Doyle during their trek.
The characters are strong and very believable.
Just a wonderful
read all the way. Dialogue and scenery descriptions are excellent as Joe is a
visual writer. When you read this you can almost hear the bullets exploding! I
highly recommend this book for those who love the thrill and excitement of CIA
type espionage!!!
About the Author
Joe McCoubrey is a former Irish newspaper editor who is now a full-time
action thriller writer. His first full-time job after leaving college was as a
showroom salesman for a car-parts company. At coffee break on the first morning
he walked to the nearest cafeteria, and kept on walking - he never went back!
At the turn of the seventies he joined the Civil Service based at Stormont, the
seat of the Northern Ireland Government, and watched behind the scenes as some
of the country's most momentous events unfolded. These were the early dark days
of the 'troubles' - events that reverberated around the world, and somehow
served to push him towards his real passion of writing. The short action story Death By
Licence was his first published work. His debut full-length thriller Someone Has
To Pay was released in September 2012, followed by Absence of Rules in January 2013.
Joe McCoubrey has lived all his life in the beautiful Irish town of
Downpatrick, made famous by its association with the national Patron Saint, St.
Patrick.
