*******************************************************************************************
ONE MISSION. A WHOLE WORLD OF TROUBLE.
Sam and Jacob Redman. Two brothers, SAS through and through. They fight alongside each other; they watch each other's backs. They are ruthlessly professional in the field of war, fiercely loyal wherever they are.
But when Jacob is booted from the Regiment for a moment of madness, he disappears. Not even his family knows where he is, or even if he's still alive. All that is about to change.
On his return from a brutal mission in Afghanistan, Sam is ordered to conduct another dangerous operation into an inhospitable part of the world. He soon learns, though, that his unit is not being told everything by their government paymasters; and so he is forced to choose between his duty to the men around him and his loyalty to the brother that he loves.
Is Jacob part of a plan that threatens world peace? As the body count rises, only Sam can stop these events from reaching their terrifying conclusion.

Disappointing. The story follows a standard storyline and there is no differentiating it from many of its kind. As you read, you already know what's to come. You read cause you hope to be surprised by an unexpected twist...only to be disappointed.

Bought this book and read it. Usually Chris Ryan's books are amazing and well written. But this 1 seemed sloppy and I was a bit disappointed with the spelling errors and for no good reason the cliff hanging ending. The book never explained what had happened to Jamie Spillane. It just ended just like that.

About the author
Chris Ryan was born near Newcastle in 1961. He joined the SAS in 1984 and was a member for ten years. During the Gulf War, Chris was the only member of an eight-man team to escape from Iraq, of which three colleagues were killed and four captured. It was the longest escape and evasion in the history of the SAS. For his last two years he was selecting and training potential recruits for the SAS.
He is a best selling author and lectures in business motivation and security.
