Description
Pre-order the brutally authentic, tense and terrifying thriller from bestselling author and frontline journalist James Brabazon.
Officially, Max McLean doesn't exist.
An off-the-books assassin for the British government, he operates alone.
But when a routine hit goes badly wrong, a cryptic note on a $100 bill prised from his target's dead fingers suggests there's more to the mission than meets the eye.
Is someone from Max's former life trying to send him a message?
From Paris to Jerusalem and on to the frozen wastes of north-west Russia, Max is forced into a desperate race for the truth - with unknown enemies determined to stop him at any cost.
And when the secret coded into the banknote is finally revealed, only one thing is certain: with the fate of the world in his possession, failure is not an option . . .
Combining the raw inventiveness of I Am Pilgrim and the breathless pace of movies like Mission Impossible and James Bond, Arkhangel sees James Brabazon stake his claim as rival to Lee Child, David Baldacci and Gregg Hurwitz as a master of the modern action thriller.

Arkhangel is a thrilling high octane read which does not let up it's furious pace. Drawing the reader in from the first page, it's a novel you feel compelled to read in what sitting. So clear your diary and get comfortable as this book is impossible to put down.
Barbara C, Reviewer
A very fast pace novel, which had me hooked from the very beginning and I did not want to put it down until I got to the end. The main character, Max, an assassin for the British Secret Service, is caught up in a mission that goes wrong and finds himself fleeing and being chased from Ireland to France, Israel and Russia. A real cliff hanger of a story which I thoroughly enjoyed.
