Synopsis

The murky underside of a terrorist war . . . Joe Johnson finds himself in the crosshairs of a Northern Ireland serial sniper who is awaiting the US president’s arrival. And the 29-year mystery around an IRA killer’s gruesome death deepens.“The twists and intricate story lines were incredible. A real page turner.” — Amazon reviewer.Ex-CIA war crimes investigator Johnson is up against a ticking clock as the sniper’s body count rises and the president and UK prime minister prepare for a G8 world summit near Belfast.Eventually, Johnson and his ex-MI6 colleague Jayne Robinson uncover historic hidden files, documents and dark secrets from three decades earlier that certain high-flying public figures would rather remained unread.The investigation climaxes with a helicopter drama in the skies over Belfast.Bandit Country—the third book in the Joe Johnson series—dives into the murky depths of historic conflicts between British security forces and the IRA, as well as the illegal US-based fundraising and weapons smuggling operations that armed the terrorists.See how Johnson battles to uncover hidden truths from the past to prevent another devastating crime today.AMAZON REVIEWERS ON THE JOE JOHNSON SERIES:★★★★★ “This new writer has entered the scene with three blockbuster books.”★★★★★ “Every bit a match for Lee Child and Tom Clancy.”★★★★★ “Right up there with Daniel Silva/Gabriel Allon.”★★★★★ “More than a touch of Forsyth.”
