About this listen

Getting caught up in the wrong place at the wrong time never stopped John Winter from doing the right thing. But when a covert mission unravels with fatal consequences, the SAS man decides he’s had enough.

Forging a new life as a pilot-for-hire, Winter wants to put his violent past behind him. But his former enemies have tracked him down. And the arrival of the US Army to provide protection for an upcoming US presidential visit has provided them with cover for a bold and elaborate plan to exact their revenge. At least that’s what they think. Their intended target, it turns out, has other ideas....

At heart a love story

As with the first two books in the John Winter series it was a very good story & very well written. However the ending was very vague & too many questions left unanswered. It was like the author just ran out of ideas. Disappointing to say the least

Terribly vague ending

I persevered, because I like military themes, but was not sure how I would cope with this subject and scenario. I was a young mother in the South of England [near Guildford] at the time of their cowardly terrorism - their way of rebelling against British rule; still seen as admirable by some. I hated their killing mindset and the slant against British soldiers having to cope with mobs in the streets. Car bombs, hotel bombs, pub bombings, teaching hate to their children - disgusting behaviour and NOT war, just thuggish rebellion, and the usual accepted bigotry against the English. Plus of course they added to their unbiblical attitudes by engendering a ridiculous 'church' war, within all that violence.
And they still love to think of themselves as the main victims ... but that's what rioters always do. They fill the streets with their hooliganism and then don't like it when law-enforcers do what it takes to subdue them.
And predictably, the author wants to put the onus on the British government.
