Product Description

Review
"A heart-thumping read."
-"Daily Express"
"McNab's great asset is that the heart of his fiction is non-fiction: other thriller writers do their research, but he has actually been there."
-"Sunday Times"

"From the Trade Paperback edition."

Product Description
Bodyguarding a TV crew on the streets of war-torn Basra, ex-deniable operator Nick Stone seems certain to die when insurgent gunmen attack. Only the reporter's swift action saves his life. When the reporter vanishes within hours, presumed kidnapped, Stone is asked by the Intelligence Service to find him. The trail leads from Iraq to London, Dublin, and ultimately Kabul - the dark and brutal city where governments, terrorism and big business inexorably collide. Caught in the crossfire, Stone's nightmare is only just beginning - for the hunter has suddenly become the hunted, in a heart-stopping race against time...

3.0 out of 5 stars McNab on form, 13 Nov 2007
By N. Brett (Wiltshire, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
This review is from: Crossfire (Hardcover)
The latest of McNab's long series of Nick Stone thrillers. I'm never quite sure what to expect from McNab any more, some of his recent thrillers have been a bit weak, but the previous one was back to his best.

Here we have Stone trying to find and rescue a reporter held somewhere in Afghanistan. As usual, nothing is what it seems as Stone follows a trail from one country to the next. Some of the recent novels have not shown Stone in the best light but this has him using his skills and intelligence whilst adding to his characterisation. The plot moves along at a good pace and hits all the right buttons in terms of action. McNab certainly is very strong on authentic detail with this one, it shows that he has been there and knows his stuff.

So, in my opinion McNab is on form with his one and it will be enjoyed by all his regular readers and those who tend towards this kind of thriller.

All what was making McNab great in his first books is back again. Back at the top. To the joy of all those who read his books.
Recommended.
And waiting impatiently for the next one.

4.0 out of 5 stars Proves I shouldn't make assumptions, 20 Jun 2008
By P. Lewis (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
There's already plenty of plot info for 'Crossfire' so I just thought I'd say that this series about the character Nick Stone has proved I shouldn't make assumptions about books. I'd assumed these were 'bloke's books' - however, unlike Yorkies, girls (and civvies!) can enjoy them too. The straightforward honest style (with an occasional pinch of humour) well reflects the character of Nick Stone. The army and brutal undercover work is a world I know nothing about and as I know it's accurate that adds to the interest. The stark detail about the countries is fascinating too (though I don't think many tourist boards will thank the author, Andy McNab). In 'Crossfire' we find out about Afghanistan and Iraq (Ireland too), in 'Recoil' it was Africa (The Congo) and in 'Aggressor' it was Georgia. I noticed not everyone was so wild about 'Recoil' and 'Aggressor', but I found them compelling (and justifiably disquieting) and now I'm going to read the older books in the Nick Stone series. So unless you're repelled by violence and language, then I'd recommend these insightful, fast paced books and don't dismiss them as 'bloke's books'. My only criticism would be that I get utterly confused by all the acronyms and wish there was a glossary.
