'Hawksley’s excellent idea is to move the battleground from Eastern Europe to the Arctic north. When a maverick Russian commander decides to occupy a tiny American island in the Bering Strait, there’s only one man who can prevent the situation from escalating into a nuclear war: Rake Ozenna of the elite Eskimo Scouts'
John Williams, Thriller of the Week – Mail on Sunday

'This one keeps you intrigued, ready for the gut punch…authentic settings, non-stop action'
Steve Berry

'Knuckle-whitening suspense, bloody violence, dirty tricks, and plenty of surprising twists make this a gripping, can't-put-it-down read'
EMILY MELTON, Booklist

'Hawksley, a foreign correspondent for the BBC, understands the backroom nature of international power and the nagging issue of ordinary folk who just don't recognize what's good for them'
Booklist
