Operation Banshee: An Action Adventure Story From The Troubles
The most mundane office job can suddenly become very, very dangerous when you have a reputation for heroism. So it is with for Steven Lucky Carter when he finds himself sitting behind a desk in Northern Ireland.
An IRA informant has gone missing and Lucky Carter is asked to go and find him. It should be a simple afternoon’s work, but it turns into a nightmare when things go badly wrong. The IRA don’t take prisoners and, if they do, it is only so they can interrogate them before they kill them. Is this one mission too far for Lucky Carter? It certainly looks that way.
This 9th book of the Carter’s Commandos series sees Lucky and his friends face an enemy that is far worse than any they have faced before, if only because they don’t know what the enemy looks like.
