COMES THE DARK STRANGER
 
A heart stopping tale of
treachery ... love - and revenge.

 
A race against time and his qwn terrible injuries brings Martin
Shane back to the dark Northern city. Seven years after the
diabolical, bloody war that almost destroyed his life. An
eternity of living without memory. Until a freak accident allows
the past to come rushing back.
 
Now Shane needs to know who betrayed him. And look in his
eyes as he dies ...
 
But as he starts to stalk his old comrades, he finds himself
uncovering a nightmare trail of blackmail, extortion - and
finally murder. A trail that leads straight back to the beautiful
woman who seems destined to capture his heart ...
 
'Jack Higgins is the master craftsman of good, clean adventure
... in the footsteps of Sapper and the great John Buchan'
