Hunter Killer Spy

In the bed of the pick-up were four masked men armed with AK 47s all pointed at us. But more worrying was the DshK 12.7mm heavy machine gun also aimed straight at the car windscreen. Even as this fact was registering with us, the masked men were on us, ripping us from the vehicle and battering us with their weapons. My mind was racing as I sought to find some way that we could get out of this. I knew our time was running out...

James Mackenzie has been in many tight spots in his life, ever since joining the JSG, a shadowy British army unit that recruits and runs spies. He cut his teeth in Northern Ireland but he came closest to death in Iraq. Seconded to Task Force Black, the special forces operation searching for high value Al Qaeda targets, James risked his life to operate undercover on Baghdad's streets at day and on capture or kill missions at night. Taken by militia he narrowly escaped with his life and later outwitted a double-agent who wanted to capture him.

In Afghanistan he hunted down the Taliban, from senior commanders to kidnap and assassination squads and narco-traffickers. Going undercover to stop a shipment of IED components took him deep into Taliban territory, with no possibility of rescue if anything went wrong. As tense as gripping as a thriller, Hunter Killer Spy takes us into a secret and dangerous world and reveals the lengths agents like James will go to as they race to stop some of the world's most deadly terrorists.
