M16

RULES

Strap in for the first explosive entry in a high-octane thriller series where every decision is life or death, and the only rule is to survive.

Some men follow the rules. Lone mercenary Marc Portman makes his own.

British Intelligence send Angela Pryce on a dangerous mission to negotiate the release of hostages held by al-Shabaab militants in Somalia.

But her boss senses something’s off. Fearing for Angela’s safety, he decides to hire extra protection. And there’s only one man for the job: Marc Portman aka The Watchman.

As he enters the lawless borderlands, Portman discovers very quickly that MI6 has been double-crossed. With no support, he and Angela are outgunned, surrounded by enemies and hunted by terrorists.

Betrayed from within, Portman has no option but to rely on his instincts and cold efficiency.

Eliminate or be eliminated.

The Watchman is a blistering international thriller perfect for fans of Lee Child, Vince Flynn, Mark Dawson, Brad Thor and Dan Latus.

MEET THE MERCENARY

A mercenary by trade, he’s the kind of professional who operates in the shadows doing what others can’t (or won’t). He provides protection in hostile situations, working in the background and making sure to stay off the record. Often the people he’s guarding have no idea he’s there. He’s got his rituals: checking his weapon before every job, always travelling with a backup plan, and a backup plan for that backup plan.

Always ten steps ahead, no one knows his real name. His friends — not that he has many — call him Portman.
