Synopsis

At a 15th Century castle outside of Edinburgh, Sir Geoffrey Cornwell, overseer of Task Force Trident and a former colonel, is in the process of brokering an unprecedented agreement. Prince Abdullah of Saudi Arabia and the Israeli Foreign Minister are scheduled to sign an historic peace treaty - that is, until their meeting is violently interrupted by a missile strike that leaves the Foreign Minister of Israel dead and the Prince injured. Gunnery Sergeant Kyle Swanson is immediately called to the UK, where he thwarts another attempt on the prince of Saudi Arabia's life. The attackers are Middle Eastern, but they aren't working for Al Qaeda - they're employed by foreign operatives opposed to the peace agreement and determined to claim Saudi oil reserves for themselves. Meanwhile, Juba comes out of hiding. One of the best snipers in the world and Kyle's nemesis, Juba remains determined to exact revenge on the man who nearly took his life. With scenes of tremendous suspense that span the globe, Clean Kill pits our hero against a group whose greed and vengeance know no limits...

A DEADLY OUTCOME

Meanwhile, out of hiding and back from the grave, comes the notorious sniper known as Juba. One of the world's most dangerous terrorists, Juba is Kyle Swanson's nemesis and is determined to exact revenge―at every imaginable cost...
