Synopsis

The third book in the Chris Ryan Extreme series.

Disavowed.
No one can escape their past forever. Ex-SAS operator John Bald knows that better than most. So when the Firm corners Bald in Kazakhstan with a promise to wipe the slate clean, he reluctantly agrees to return to the frontline. His mission: hunt down a fugitive Russian oligarch suspected of murdering a beautiful young Westminster aide. Viktor Klich knows too much. Now Bald must catch Klich - before the Russian security services get to him first.

Desperate.
But what begins as a simple snatch-and-grab soon descends into a brutal fight for survival as Bald pursues Klich from the violent streets of Caracas to the brash glamour of Dubai, leaving a trail of blood and bullets in his wake. As he closes in on his quarry Bald finds his loyalties called into question. And when the mission goes wrong, he's accused of being complicit in a dangerous deceit.

Deadly.
Now Bald is a wanted man. Only one person can help him: Viktor Klich, the oligarch he was ordered to kill. In a world where nothing is as it seems, Bald will have to call on all his skills to stay alive, protect his former enemy - and uncover a dark secret that goes right to the heart of the establishment ...

The Chris Ryan Extreme books take you even further into the heart of the mission with more extreme action, more extreme language and more extreme pace. Like Call of Duty or Medal of Honour you'll feel part of the team.

About Chris Ryan

Former SAS corporal and the only man to escape death or capture during the Bravo Two Zero operation in the 1991 Gulf War, Chris Ryan turned to writing thrillers to tell the stories the Official Secrets Act stops him putting in his non-fiction. His novels have gone on to inspire the Sky One series Strike Back. Born near Newcastle in 1961, Chris Ryan joined the SAS in 1984. During his ten years there he was involved in overt and covert operations and was also sniper team commander of the anti-terrorist team. During the Gulf War, Chris Ryan was the only member of an eight-man unit to escape from Iraq, where three colleagues were killed and four captured. It was the longest escape and evasion in the history of the SAS. For this he was awarded the Military Medal. He wrote about his experiences in the bestseller The One That Got Away, which was adapted for screen, and since then has written three other works of non-fiction, over twenty bestselling novels and a series of children's books.

Goodreads review by Bill

I quite enjoyed this book because I enjoy fast paced action stories. However, the action was so relentlss and our hero so violent that it was almost too much! No doubt this is why the book is part of the author's 'Extreme' series. I also have to admit I did not really understand the ending. Perhaps t......more

Goodreads review by Alex

The third in Chris Ryan’s Extreme series (? I don’t get it either, why it differs from the others, I think more over the top), you get what you kind of expect now – immoral anti-hero, slimy, backstabbing MI6 agents, slutty prostitutes, model-like female spies and explosions and gun fights And for so......more

Goodreads review by Neville

This is a great read if you are into this style of story. John Bald is ex SAS and has worked for the "Firm" with loose links to MI6. He is coerced into another job by his ex-boss Leo Land to catch a Russian Oligarch, but there is more to the story than what Land is telling him. Bald becomes a target......more

Goodreads review by Kaisy

Just letting you know that everything that can go wrong, will. That is basically the premise of the book summed up in a sentence. There is also deceit, stupidity, blatant racism and sexism hidden in between the pages. The payoff was also not worth any of this bullshit that that asshole had to go throu......more
