Harry Jackman is a British ex-pat gun-runner based in Zambia. When he threatens to reveal British undercover operations in Africa, SIS agent Sam Packer is dispatched to Zambia to negotiate for his silence. But soon after Sam's arrival, Jackman is killed. With his last dying breath he tells Sam of five electrically-powered containers which he'd smuggled out of Russia a year ago under a corrupt Zambian diplomatic cover. He fears this was the deadly nuclear bomb making material 'Red Mercury' destined for Arab terrorists. Regretting his own involvement Jackman suggests Sam contact his daughter Julie.
This information leads Sam on a dangerous trail through London, Vienna and Eastern Europe. On his way he is forced to confront disturbing secrets about his father's naval past and his own career as an agent is put on the line. Somehow it's all linked to the recent upsurge of fascism in Europe and a nail-bomb attack on a Sikh community in London. It's a race against time as Sam hastens to discover who is at the centre of this racist and potentially fatal conspiracy.

The stunning new thriller from the author of City Of Ice.

When a corpse is found floating in a fishing hole cut into a frozen lake near Montreal, it appears at first to be straightforward homicide. But the victim had connections to the pharmaceutical industry and, before long, brilliant, unorthodox detective Emile Cinq Mars realises he has a far more complex case on his hands.
As Cinq Mars delves deeper, he uncovers a web of intrigue which extends to the heart of the Mob, and has enmeshed native Indian activist Lucy Gabriel, who has been innocently involved in illegal experiments on AIDS patients.
Emile Cinq-Mars soon finds himself in a dark and sinister world where secrets are complex and profitable and no one is exactly who he or she seems.
