The Exile by Andrew
Britton
With intricate plotting and spine tingling
action, The Exile propels us deep into the heart of a terrifying
conspiracy rooted in one of the world’s most unstable regions—a place where the
political has become brutally personal...
For the President of the United States,
the daily horror of life in West Darfur, Sudan’s anarchic killing fields, just
hit heartbreakingly close to home. His beloved niece Lily, a nurse caring for
refugees in the most war-torn region, has been targeted and savagely murdered
by a corps of Janjaweed, fearsome government-backed militiamen.
The rash and vicious killing is a clear
provocation, but any response will seriously destabilize the already-teetering
region and threaten the security of the entire world. With the situation too
explosive for diplomatic or military solutions, yet with the President and the
public thirsting for revenge, America is out of options. Except one: Ryan
Kealey.
Kealey, ex-Special Forces, former CIA,
unrivaled counterterrorism expert, has been central to the war on terror for
over a decade. But he’s finished trying to save the world. After the Agency
hung him out to dry—and let his lover die—it was easy for him to turn his back.
They had nothing he wanted. Until now. For the government has revealed its
trump card, the one thing Kealey will risk everything for.
Once back in the fold, Kealey’s pursuit of
Lily’s killers unearths secrets and betrayals that shock even his war-tempered
sensibilities and leave him with no-one to trust. On the lawless streets of
Sudan, and at the highest levels of the American government, shadowy forces
ignite a conflagration with unknowable global consequences.
Brimming with intrigue and danger, The
Exile pulses with high-stakes gamble after gamble, as one man navigates a
tenuous web of international relations that could collapse at any moment…
