About this title

Synopsis

The British Intelligence outfit SR(2) has lost too many agents already trying to stop the European cocaine trade. Now they need someone unknown to succeed where they have failed--they need Philis.

Whether he's courting danger or women, this smuggler-turned-secret-agent is as villainous as he is seductive. Philis has no interest in helping the authorities--until a longtime friend is brutally tortured and an innocent woman beaten to within an inch of her life. Now Philis has but one to find the ruthless drug leader behind it all, and make him pay for his crimes.

But he has no idea what he's about to get into, in this fast-paced espionage thriller featuring a hero who's "as resilient as a rubber band" (Kirkus Reviews).
