Inget val

Sent om aftenen den 24. januar 1991 befinder de otte engelske elitesoldater sig langt inde på irakisk territorium. Deres opgave er at sabotere irakernes kommunikationslinjer og finde og destruere deres mobile Scud-missilramper. Men en pludselig krydsild med en gruppe irakiske soldater tvinger dem til at løbe for livet - ud i ørkenen. Deres mål er at nå den syriske grænse 120 kilometer mod nordvest, men den første nat splittes soldaterne på uforklarlig vis i to grupper. Lydbogen er en barsk og forbløffende autentisk beretning om krig og ukuelig vilje til overlevelse. Det var tanken om sin familie, der holdt den engelske SAS-soldat Chris Ryan i live, da han pludselig måtte klare sig på egen hånd i den irakiske ørken - fjendens territorium - under Golfkrigen. Chris Ryan er tidligere sergeant i British Special Forces. Allerede som 16-årig meldte han sig til den britiske hær, inden han blev optaget i eliteenheden 23rd SAS Reserves. Han blev kendt i offentligheden, da han som den eneste af en otte mand stor SAS-patrulje undslap mission Bravo Two Zero, der havde til formål at sabotere Scud Missile Launchers i det nordvestlige Irak under den Første Golfkrig. Ryan tilbagelagde mere end 300 km til fods under sin flugt - til fods, i en ørken. Dermed skrev Ryan militærhistorie som "the longest escape and evasion by an SAS trooper or any other soldier." Chris Ryan har siden skrevet spændingsromaner med baggrund i egne erfaringer som elitesoldat.

Despatches from the secret world behind the headlines. Former SAS legend Chris Ryan brings you his seventeenth novel, filled with his trademark action, thrills and inside knowledge. Osama Bin Laden is dead. The President of the United States knows it. The world knows it. And SAS hero Joe Mansfield knows it. He was on the ground in Pakistan when it happened. He saw Seal Team 6 go in, and he saw them extract with their grisly cargo. He was in the right place at the right time. Or maybe, the wrong place at the wrong time. Because now, somebody wants Joe dead, and they're willing to do anything to make it happen. His world is violently dismantled. His family is targeted, his reputation destroyed. And as a mysterious and ruthless enemy plans a devastating terror attack on both sides of the Atlantic, Joe knows this: his only chance of survival is to find out what happened in Bin Laden's compound the night the Americans went in. But an unseen, menacing power has footprints it needs to cover. And it will stop at nothing to prevent him uncovering the sinister truth... (P)2012 Hodder & Stoughton

Traitor

Josh Harding er på mission i Afghanistan for at eliminere en af al-Qaedas fem topledere. Tre måneder senere vågner han op i et ukendt hus i USA med skudsår og hukommelsestab. Lidt efter lidt finder Josh ud af, at han er endt der, fordi han var på en mission for at fange to unge hackere. De har formået at hacke sig ind på USAs største leverandør af den software, der styrer al elektricitet i landet, og har afpresset leverandøren for en masse penge. Al-Qaeda er selvfølgelig meget interesseret i at "tale" med disse to unge genier, så nu er spørgsmålet, om Josh når at få fat i dem først.

Ryan har efterfølgende skrevet en lang række spændingsbøger inspireret af sine egne oplevelser i militæret.

Kuppet

Will Jackson, SAS-soldat med operationer i Afghanistan, Irak, Sudan og Pakistan, går helt i hundene, da han mister sin kone og datter i et bombeattentat, og forlader efterfølgende regimentet som en slagen mand. To år senere bliver han hyret af MI5 og CIA til at opspore Faisal Ahmed, manden der stod bag terrorangrebet. Planen er, at Will med et hold SAS-drenge skal til Afghanistan og befri Faisals søster, der holdes som gidsel af Taliban. Derefter skal hun bruges til at lokke Faisal ud fra sit gemmested. Alt går som planlagt – lige indtil Faisal afslører, at det slet ikke er ham, men CIA der står bag terrorangrebet, som de har iscenesat, for at få den Engelske regering til at tro, at der er en reel terrortrussel, og dermed vil stå last og brast med USA, i alle deres planer for at bekæmpe terrorismen. Så nu er Will ikke kun gal på Faisal, men også på den chef for CIA, der førte ham bag lyset, for at få ham til at opspore Faisal. Det hele ender i et stort opgør mellem de tre – og den eneste der kommer levende derfra er Will. Chris Ryan er et pseudonym for en tidligere soldat inden for de britiske specialstyrker.

Chris Ryan is dé autoriteit als het om militaire thrillers gaat. Voor fans van Jason Bourne en Mission Impossible. Een boot vol wanhopige en doodsbange vluchtelingen gaat bijna ten onder op de woeste Middellandse Zee als ze genadeloos wordt aangevallen door de SAS. Strijders van Islamitische Staat gebruiken deze boten om zichzelf Europa binnen te smokkelen. Alleen door deze strijders op te sporen voordat ze het Verenigd Koninkrijk binnen komen, kan worden voorkomen dat ze terreuraanslagen plegen op Britse bodem.

Een uiterst geheim sas-moordteam wordt ingezet om belangrijke doelwitten uit te schakelen. Het is bloederig, gewelddadig en meedogenloos werk, alleen geschikt voor de meest bekwame en gevoelloze commando’s van het regiment – zoals Danny Black. Maar wanneer Danny zich bij dit sas-team aansluit, komt hij er al snel achter dat Taliban-militanten niet zijn enige probleem zijn. Zowel het Britse leger als het sas-team blijkt niet immuun voor corruptie. Als hij wordt beschuldigd van een afschuwelijke oorlogsmisdaad, slaat hij op de vlucht. Een klopjacht op gevaarlijk terrein volgt en Danny zal al zijn verstand, training en kracht moeten inzetten om te kunnen overleven en de waarheid aan het licht te brengen.

De leden maakten vroeger deel uit van de Mexicaanse geheime dienst, maar zijn het slechte pad op gegaan. Ze behoren daardoor tot de meest meedogenloze en best getrainde criminelen ter wereld. Dat is waarom alleen de meest meedogenloze en best getrainde geheime dienst ter wereld ze een halt kan toeroepen. Het team van SAS-legende Danny Black gaat undercover en probeert de geheimzinnige, ongrijpbare leider Z1 uit zijn schuilplaats te lokken. Maar het kartel blijkt meer macht te hebben dan gedacht en de strategieën van de leden zijn buitengewoon bloeddorstig. Als het SAS-team wil doordringen in het hart van het kartel, moeten ze tot het uiterste gaan
