In the first instalment of this epic military action saga that charts the rise and fall of John Beech and his family, a ruthless Iranian terrorist leader arrives in London on a mission from Allah. Firmly intent on the planting and detonation of a thermonuclear warhead filled with thousands of radioactive isotopes, Mohammed Al-Hazarwi will stop at nothing to wipe out the entire population of Britain. After killing a terrorist informant and foiling a bomb blast at the city theatre, Beech loses his beloved wife and teenage daughter in a horrific execution-style death. Fuelled by deepest pain, rage and precious memories of the family that once made his world complete, Beech must stop the terrorists at all costs and avenge the deaths of his loved ones.
