Drop Zone is an action-packed thriller featuring Spider Shepherd during his SAS days, before he signed up as an undercover cop and worked for MI5. Different decade, different terrorists. But lives are on the line, and Dan ‘Spider’ Shepherd and his SAS team are the only ones who can save the day. The daughter of an American politician has been kidnapped by white supremacists in Namibia. The kidnappers are demanding their own homeland in the heart of Africa and want to use the girl as leverage. The American Government can’t agree to the demands but are reluctant to mount a high profile rescue mission. They need a deniable operation, and who better than the SAS to do the dirty work? Shepherd is tasked with putting together a team to parachute into the African badlands to rescue the hostage. Getting to the girl is easy enough, it’s when they try to get her out that the trouble begins and the bullets start to fly. Stephen Leather is one of the UK’s most successful thriller writers, an eBook and Sunday Times bestseller and author of the critically acclaimed Dan ‘Spider’ Shepherd series and the Jack Nightingale supernatural detective novels.
