Synopsis

WHITE LIES is a fast paced, heart-pounding thriller that will have you hooked from the first minute until the last - the eleventh Spider Shepherd book in Stephen Leather's bestselling series.

Dan 'Spider' Shepherd is used to putting his life on the line - for his friends and for his job with MI5. So when one of his former apprentices is kidnapped in the badlands of Pakistan, Shepherd doesn't hesitate to join a rescue mission.

But when the plan goes horribly wrong, Shepherd ends up in the hands of al-Qaeda terrorists. His SAS training is of little help as his captors beat and torture him.

Shepherd's MI5 controller Charlotte Button is determined to get her man out of harm's way, but to do that she's going to have to break all the rules. Her only hope is to bring in America's finest - the elite SEALs who carried out Operation Neptune Spear - in a do-or-die operation to rescue the captives.

Goodreads review by Tyler on July 10, 2019

So the only reason I actually read or would have ever known about this book/series is because my wife find it in Central Park, a gift of the book fairies. And I'm rather glad I picked it up.

I've never been a fan of books about war (or movies, for that matter). But I do love a good action/adventure book, and with all the turmoil that's happening around the world these days, I'm not surprised that settings often are in places like Afghanistan and Pakistan. I'm not thrilled about that, bu......more
