A tormented ex-soldier. A terrorist cell out for blood. A nation at stake. A family caught in the middle. Shirley O'Shea is an ex-con with a history of violence and more than one debt to pay. Haunted by his years as a special forces operative, he's still trying to make things right for his family when a man named Isaac shows up with a package to deliver and an envelope full of money. Shirley takes the job, and the life he's spent years rebuilding comes crashing down in an instant. Now he's a wanted man, a continent away from home, in the company of a terrorist splinter cell. Shirley discovers that there is more than one side to every war and that a tragedy buried in his family's past may put the future of an entire nation in peril. But to stop that from happening, it's going to cost Shirley something he could never have imagined. Fans of Harvath and Reacher will find a hero they can root for in Shirley O'Shea.
