Alan Beach and Jake Riley are back More than a year after shutting down the Devlin Conspiracy, Beach and his new partner, James Foxx, are hot on the trail of a brutal serial killer. The killer's modus operandi is startlingly similar to THE KILLING CODE's infamous "Orphan-maker" Brian Adler. But Adler's been dead for nine months. On the other side of the world, Jake Riley's hunting the man who killed his brother. The former Special Ops soldier reluctantly teams up with Mike Lee, his former CIA handler, and Dozer and Priest, two former Australian SAS operators turned mercenaries. Jake's thirst for vengeance leads them on a breakneck chase from Thailand and Cambodia to America and the Ukraine in pursuit of a major Russian pakhan. But the powerful crime-lord is in the midst of his own battle with a rival gang of Romanians, hell-bent on seizing power in the region.
