by JackHiggins (Author)

Synopsis

The action-packed new Sean Dillon novel. Master thriller writer Jack Higgins plunges his hugely popular hero into his ninth adventure - racing against time to prevent an assassination that would shock the world.

With his recent international bestsellers Pay the Devil and Day of Reckoning, Jack Higgins proved once again that his recipe of non-stop adventure and pulse-pounding action told at a breakneck pace is irresistible to millions of readers around the world.

Now his spectacular new thriller, Edge of Danger, finds undercover enforcer Sean Dillon facing a mission that will test him as never before.

Half British and half Arab, Paul Rashid is proud to be both heir to the ancient Dauncey Place in England and the leader of the Rashid Bedouin of Hazar in the Persian Gulf. He is a man for whom family honour is everything. So when he uncovers an international conspiracy that threatens to use any means necessary, including murder, to deprive his family of the oil wealth that is their birthright, he vows to gain vengeance - and to make sure the world takes notice.

When rumours of Rashid's audacious plan reach London, the security forces waste no time in sending undercover enforcer Sean Dillon to stop him. Helped once again by White House security insider Blake Johnson, Dillon must overcome foes old and new as he is caught up in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse that takes him from Ireland to the USA, and from the heart of the English countryside to the deserts of Hazar... and the very edge of danger.
