Messenger for the Dead

He was last seen leaping off a pier in Scotland, pursued by two men hellbent on justice. In the days that ensued, the world had one question: what happened to Aadan Mukhtaar, the terror mastermind behind three of the most heinous attacks on European soil?

Investigative journalist Mathieu James and British operative Conan MacGregor were the hunters that night. What they didn't know was whether the terrorist died at their hands, or evaded capture. Again.

One week later, a mysterious sailing yacht appeared in the waters near Oslo, towing a clue that ignited a manhunt in the Nordics. As the intrigue builds, so do the stakes-from the glittering lights of Los Angeles to the marble corridors of Washington, D.C.; from the inner sanctum of Moscow's military intelligence units to the fabled halls of London's secret service. All roads point to Norway, where Russian assets are inserted to shepherd a most wanted man to safety.

As allies brace for another attack, James reunites with MacGregor, CIA analyst Alyssa Stevens and colleague Ana-Marie Poulin. Together with Norwegian special forces, they find themselves in a dangerous game of chance, as Moscow pulls the strings of deceit.
