The brilliant new topical thriller from the author of Green Light and Underworld. It's the very near-future in a new Northern Ireland, and as a result of the accelerating peace process the British government has been forced to release one of the most vicious of IRA paramilitaries, 'Mad' Mike Houlihan. In a desperate measure to contain the damage, SAS operative Steve Barnes is sent to 'elminate' the problem. But when his first attempt fails and he is recalled to save further embarrasment, he decides to stay on, sink into the Irish underworld and complete his mission...all alone.
