Synopsis
Three men—an Iraqi, a former coalition soldier, and a journalist—drive together from Baghdad towards Fallujah as the U. S. Marines encircle the city to take it apart. The men are supposedly on a single mission to seek a recent kidnap victim, but in truth all three have very different aims in the besieged town, and each keep a dark secret from the others. Greed, ambition, and guilt are what separates their individual motivations, but a single miscalculation could bring an end to them all. Delicately intertwined in this tense thriller is a dangerous and forbidden love story, converging at the climax with a nail-bitingly deadly twist.

About the Author
A former member of the elite Special Boat Service and 14 Int., N. Ireland's top-secret SAS detachment, Duncan Falconer left after more than a decade of operational service and went on to the private security 'circuit'. His SBS exploits were documented in his first book, the bestselling FIRST INTO ACTION.
Reviews
Despite an impressive biography that includes stints with Britain's Special Boat Service and private security, Falconer (The Hostage) delivers a stand-alone thriller that conveys little of his expertise. When Bernard Mallory, a royal marine corporal, is separated from his unit during a search-and-rescue operation in the second Iraq War, he stumbles on a cache of millions of dollars, which he buries until he can return and safely retrieve it. After leaving the service, Mallory accepts work as a private security guard in the Green Zone, where his scheme to profit is complicated by his growing attraction to a beautiful local, Tasneen Rahman, whose brother, Abdul, witnessed the abduction of Jeffrey Lamont, an employee of a communications company who turns out to be a Milwaukee beer magnate's black sheep son. Coincidently, Mallory's latest client is an American journalist assigned to cover the Lamont story. Readers hoping for a sophisticated view of the dangers of 2004 Iraq will be disappointed. (Apr.)
