Some wars are destined to be fought forever...
They call it 'The Graveyard of Empires' for good reason. For thousands
of years, Afghanistan has been the rock that generations of would-be
conquerors have perished on. What chance does one man stand in this
place?
So when ex-SAS major Ben Hope hears former bounty-hunter, Madison
Cahill, needs his help he knows it will test him to his limits - and
beyond. As the borders slam shut, he must trace his friend before the
new regime does. His only lead? An ancient lost city founded by
Alexander the Great and rediscovered by Madison's archaeologist father.
The mission will take Ben back to a place he thought was firmly in his
past, back to someone he can never leave behind - and back to some old
comrades. Among these is SAS man turned assassin, Jaden Wolf. Wolf has
come to Afghanistan with his own agenda and knows as well as Ben that
the conditions they face may prove as lethal as their enemies.
As they uncover old secrets, they find modern ones are just as
dangerous. Who is the mysterious 'Spartan' that the British officials
are so desperate to extract from behind enemy lines? And outnumbered and
outgunned at every turn, is the pressure of being the last hope of the
innocent too much to bear when surviving past sundown seems impossible?
