Sean Egan, ex-SAS operative and private investigator, is hired by wealthy American to investigate the murder of her stepson a student who has been brutally killed and his corpse used to transport a deadly consignment of drugs.
Investigate, and avenge
Egan is initially unwilling to take the job, but when he discovers a personal link, choice becomes a luxury he can no longer afford.
The hunt is on for a ruthless man with links not only to drugs but also international terrorism, and the old Sicilian proverb has never been more true: the price for revenge is a season in hell.
