About the book

Spying, lying and dying. Jack Higgins meets Spooks in Steve Jacksons explosive debut novel.

They say lightning never strikes twice. They were wrong. London has been bombed for the second time in two years, but this time the enemy is a lot closer to home.

Paul Aston, a young MI6 Agent is sent to investigate. But nothing could have prepared him for the scenes of horror and devastation that he sees. Images that will stay with him for the rest of his life.

The government blames MI6, MI6 blames the government, but the truth behind what the media are calling 18/8 is more chilling than anyone could have thought.

Slowly, Paul tears away the layers of corruption, betrayal and murder to reveal the real culprit. Someone who knows every trick in the book, because hes played every trick in the book. Someone that has a deep seething hatred of MI6 and will stop at nothing until his vengeance is satisfied.

He is THE MENTOR.

About the Author

Steve Jackson

On leaving school Steve Jackson fell into journalism, where filling in expense forms gave him a solid grounding in fiction writing. From there he meandered through numerous occupations – musician, recording engineer, university drop-out, guitar tutor, riding instructor – before turning his hand to thriller writing. Born in Scotland, he spent most of his childhood with his nose in a book in deepest, darkest Gloucestershire. He currently lives in St Albans.
