Red Strike
Book 4 in the bestselling Strikeback series by SAS hero Chris Ryan.
A former Russian spy, living in hiding in Malta, goes on the run after an attempt on his life. He’s been targeted because of what he knows about chemical weapons and the poisoning of an exiled oligarch who cut a deal with MI6, but he’s actually got information about a planned Russian invasion.
Now he’s gone to ground, and MI6 want to get hold of him before the Russians do.
When a retired general learns about the op he reports back to his Russian paymasters. The former spy must be killed before he spills his guts to MI6. The General has an ex-SAS member on his team who is blackmailed into executing the Russian spy once they find him. But the operation goes wrong, and series hero John Porter escapes with the spy. John Bald and the ex-SAS villain must work together to track them down before it’s too late, and expose the General before it’s too late and Russia reconquers the Baltic states…

Praise for Chris Ryan
Ryan chooses fiercely up-to-the-minute plots, and laces them with an exceptional eye for detail and insider knowledge ... Fearsome and fast-moving
A shockingly authentic tale to keep your adrenaline pumping as fast as the blood on the pages.
Nobody takes you to the action better than Ryan, because he's the real deal, and this muscle-and-bone thriller will have fans' blood pumping.
The final set piece is a masterclass in how to write a firefight without it turning into a dull 'count the bullets' scene.
