Deniable operator Nick Stone expects his latest mission to be a straightforward part of the fight against Osama Bin Laden’s network of terror.

Before long, the conspiracy he has uncovered unravels to reveal a doomsday threat against the populations of New York, London and Berlin. And Stone faces the ultimate trade-off: the life of someone he loves, against those of millions he doesn’t even know…
