Jeremy Summers, a British banker with a secret that could reveal MI6 intelligence sources involved in the war against drug-funded terrorism has been seized at gunpoint, in broad daylight, on the streets of west London. An old contact, Raglan – an Englishman who served in the French Foreign Legion – is on his trail.

Raglan's pursuit will lead him to the winter-ravaged wasteland of a remote Russian penal colony. A place that holds Russia's most brutal murderers. A place of death and retribution. How will he get in? More importantly, how will he get out... alive?

PRAISE FOR DAVID GILMAN:

'A gripping ride' Wilbur Smith.
