Read a sample Read a sample

A mean and dirty war is being waged on British soil. In the 1970s that war was at its bloodiest. Sectarian violence was an almost daily occurrence and the terrorist groups, who financed their operations through robbery, fraud and extortion, engaged in torture, assassination and wholesale slaughter. To cope with the terrorists' activities in the British Army needed the support of exceptional soldiers who could operate deep undercover. The group chosen as most suitable for this task was the legendary Special Air Service – the SAS! Deployed in Northern Ireland in 1976, the regiment was soon embroiled in some of the most secretive, dangerous and controversial activities in its history. These included plain-clothes work in the towns and cities, the running of operational posts in rural areas, surveillance and intelligence-gathering, ambushes and daring cross-border raids. Soldier E SAS: Sniper Fire in Belfast is the fifth in a series of novels based on this extraordinary regiment – a thrilling 'factoid' adventure about the most daring soldiers in military history: the SAS!
