'BREATHLESS, COMPLEX AND SERIOUSLY HARDCORE' LEE CHILD

Officially Max McLean doesn't exist.

Sniper. Spy. Assassin. His job is top secret, deadly... and often Max is the only thing keeping his country safe.

Fortunately, he's bloody good at it.

But Max is growing tired of unquestioned loyalty to his political masters. And when his latest job takes him deep into West African jungle, where a remote village has been quarantined after a sinister virus takes hold, it's time for answers.

As the mission darkens further than he ever thought possible, Max faces a perilous, breath-taking quest for the truth, that will call into question everything that he once believed in, and leave the fate of humanity itself in his hands . . .

The Break Line drips with authenticity, menace and first-hand knowledge of the frontline. Smart, unputdownable and packed with jaw-dropping plot twists, this is a thriller like no other.
