Product Description

Product Description

Thriller with bloody twists and turns as ruthless killers meet their match in a former SAS hit squad.

Jack Calder is an ex-SAS soldier working with former colleagues at ISP, a specialist security firm. He is sent to investigate a murderous diamond heist in Holland, but swiftly learns that there is a very strong Far East connection. He then travels to Hong Kong where he meets the glamorous chief of ISP's local bureau, May-Ling.

Together they begin to unravel a complex web of corruption. The twin spiders at the centre of this web are the Chan brothers, leaders of one of Hong Kong's most ruthless and powerful triad gangs.

The trail of death and mayhem coils across Europe, Hong Kong and South America until all the scores are settled.

5.0 out of 5 stars Seat Belts Required 25 Feb 2012
By Miss R. Wood
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Right from the start, you know Seumas Gallacher means business! This book is not for the faint hearted. The Violin Man's Legacy is a fast paced, no nonsense thriller which has all the ingredients you could possibly want from an action story. No complicated plot here. The main character - ex SAS man Jack Calder - is instantly likeable and you get to know more about him and his formative years quickly, described with surprising gentleness given the tough introduction.

In a James Bond style plot, the action doesn't let up for a moment. There are plenty of merciless executions, jetting around the globe on the trail of the villains - marvellous scenery descriptions particularly of Hong Kong - and of course there is time for a bit of passion too.

This was a very satisfying first book. I look forward to the next one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great read. 31 July 2011

This is an great story with lots of suspense and enough violence and sex to give it a little pizazz. The author obviously knows his places where the action takes place very well. I hope to see more for Gallacher!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Action Writing 1 April 2012
By John Alder
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I enjoyed this book a lot. Seumas Gallacher is a writer for the future, no doubt about that. His characters were well rounded and his plot plausible and exciting. International in its scope, this novel proved a very interesting and enjoyable read. I commend it to anyone who enjoys thrillers.

A great read!

4.0 out of 5 stars It's good, but Vengeance Wears Black is better
An interesting mix of personal tragedy and romping yarn. The bad guys don't know what's hit them, mainly because they don't live long enough to ask questions. The good guys? Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars Maybe the wrong reader
Maybe I'm the wrong reader for THE VIOLIN MAN'S LEGACY I just couldn't get into it. If you're a fan of action fiction you'll probably like it a lot more.

4.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining International Thriller
This is a complex story I enjoyed reading. The scenes and culture of England, Holland, and Hong Kong are described in such detail and flavor I felt the author must've lived there. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars James Bond type novel without the futuristic gimmicks
Easy to read and hard to put down once started something happening in every chapter. Seumas has the guts to be a self publisher and that should always be rewarded.
