Sean Duffys got nothing And when youve got nothing to lose you have everything to gain So when MI come knocking Sean knows exactly what they want and what hell want in return but he hasnt got the first idea how to get it Of course hes heard about the spectacular escape of IRA man Dermot McCann from Her Majestys Maze prison And he knew with chilly certainty that their paths would cross But finding Dermot leads Sean to an old locked room mystery and into the kind of danger where you can lose as easily as winning From old betrayals and ancient history to s most infamous crime Sean tries not to fall behind in the race to annihilation Can he outrun the most skilled terrorist the IRA ever created And will the past catch him first
