About this title

From the Publisher

Special Branch and the CIA descend on the spa town of Buxton to recruit a retired Secret Service officer. Jackson's mission: to foil Operation Condor - a top secret plan conceived by the East German Stasi in the Cold War, and now in the hands of al-Qaeda - by elminating three sleepers. His first kill is clinical. Then, poised for the second, he finds himself the target of a Secret Service assassin and a Special Branch ambush. After a desperate escape, he flees to London to contact a former colleague at the South African embassy. There Jackson discovers that his only chance to stop Condor is to find out which student at a secret police school in Pomerania passed the plan to al-Qaeda. Double-crossed a second time, he establishes the identity of the traitor and escapes to Dublin, where he tracks the man to a Caribbean island. In Barbados Jackson must outwit the traitor, the CIA, and the Secret Service. Meanwhile, in England, Special Branch eagerly await his return...
