Going Back: Tom Novak Book Three

The war is over, but some scars never heal…

Novak is back.

Answering a call from his old friend and comrade-in-arms, Mike Brogan, Tom Novak finds himself back in the one place he does not want to be, the home of his childhood nightmares: Sarajevo.

Undercover and thrust into the centre of a Black Op, Tom and his team are double-crossed and forced to rely on their wits as a deadly new threat emerges.

Forced into a race against time to stop a terrifyingly effective new weapon, can Tom fight against the odds once more to save not just those he loves, but the world as we know it?

Going Back is the electrifying third novel in Neil Lancaster’s Tom Novak series, described by Tony Parsons as making “Jason Bourne look like a vegan pilates teacher.”

"If you take all the best parts of 24, Line Of Duty, and Mission Impossible, and put them in one book, then you would have something very much like GOING BACK. An incredible, exciting read." - Cass Green, Sunday Times bestselling author.

"As taut as a garrotte and impossible to put down, this defines 'page turner'." - Neil Broadfoot, Dundee International Book Prize & McIlvanney Award-nominated crime writer.

“Neil Lancaster is the greatest crime writer who you have never heard of. Lancaster is – by some distance – the most authentic voice in thriller writing. Other crime writers tell stories about drug traffickers, murderers and assorted bad guys – with his long service in both army khaki and police blue, Neil Lancaster has stared them all in the eye. That makes the Tom Novak thrillers something special. Lancaster has created a clear-eyed, good-hearted hard man whose exploits resound with hard-earned wisdom of a writer who has walked those mean streets. Going Back finds Tom Novak undercover in the Balkans of his worst nightmares. This is a high octane, red-blooded, two-fisted thriller that will keep any crime lover up way past their bedtime. You will believe every word. Brilliant stuff.” – Tony Parsons, bestselling author and journalist
