When the Troubles in Ireland were ending, his were just beginning . .
. A thriller from the New York Times-bestselling author of The
Midnight Bell.
Sean Rogan is waiting for freedom. Convicted of staging jailbreaks for
his former compatriots, he's just biding his time until his pardon comes
through as the fighting finally begins to cease. But he doesn't get a
pardon--he gets a daring breakout when his old IRA commander, Colum
O'More, arranges for his escape. Because Rogan is needed on the outside.
The organization is waning, and a large cash boost is needed to get it
back in fighting form. The job is simple: Hijack a load of paper money
marked for destruction and bring it home. But the IRA he knew is no
more, and the boys he's working with aren't so much patriots as they are
treacherous thugs. When the job goes sideways, he learns that loyalty
and duty have been replaced by greed and betrayal--and that his friends
are no longer very friendly.
The author of The Eagle Has Landed and the Sean Dillon novels, Jack
Higgins has electrified millions of readers around the world with his
gripping thrillers that showcase what action, adventure, and
international intrigue are meant to be.
