I was reminded again just how bloody good this series is when the first book in the series, The Cold, Cold Ground was discussed on 4MA(link is external) - the conversation made me go back and rethink the book a lot. This third book showed up in the middle of the conversation which also made it even more anticipated so I've been champing at the bit a little as I had a couple of other books to finish off first. Needless to say very happy, despite the 45C yesterday to sit down and start this book.

From the Blurb:

Sean Duffy's got nothing. And when you've got nothing to lose, you have everything to gain. So when MI5 come knocking, Sean knows exactly what they want, and what he'll want in return, but he hasn't got the first idea how to get it.

Of course he's heard about the spectacular escape of IRA man Dermot McCann from Her Majesty's Maze prison. And he knew, with chilly certainty, that their paths would cross. But finding Dermot leads Sean to an old locked room mystery, and into the kind of danger where you can lose as easily as winning.

From old betrayals and ancient history to 1984's most infamous crime, Sean tries not to fall behind in the race to annihilation. Can he outrun the most skilled terrorist the IRA ever created? And will the past catch him first?
