SynopsisThe new Spider Shepherd thriller from bestselling Stephen Leather, known for his heart-pounding, page-turning, topical action., The ninth book in the bestselling Dan 'Spider' Shepherd series. The most wanted man in the world is dead. Now those loyal to him seek revenge. When Navy Seals track down and kill Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan, it's obvious there was a traitor on the inside. After the false friends are revealed to be two British students, Malik and Chaudhry - former Islamic fundamentalists recruited by MI5 - they become targets themselves. Dan 'Spider' Shepherd must teach the pair how to survive undercover with al-Qaeda closing in. But Spider is not used to playing the handler. And with the line between mentor and friend beginning to blur, and a terrorist plot putting thousands of lives at stake, can he protect everyone before it's too late?, When Bin Laden is killed, it's obvious there was a leak from within. After the source is revealed to be Malik and Chaudhry, they are immediately under threat from al-Qaeda, who have sent an assassin to kill them. With the assassin closing in, Shepherd is drafted in to teach the pair how to survive undercover.
