In a fast-paced follow-up to "Wicked Game"," Joshua Thane, aka Hex, embarks on a mission to defy the Mossad and rescue MI6 agent McCallen
Hex has returned to his old stomping ground in "Little London" (Cheltenham) and reinvented himself as a property developer. But going straight is tough. He misses the buzz. He also misses McCallen. So when McCallen comes to him with a private job, involving a trip to Berlin, Hex can't resist--and just a small step outside the UK risks the certain attention of Mossad. But an Israeli hit squad is the least of his problems because someone with deadly intent is out not just to get him but those closest to him. And whoever it is has modeled their skills on Hex. As crime bosses and intelligence officers are picked off one by one, Hex realizes that Billy Squeeze's dead hand reaches far and wide beyond the grave. Then McCallen disappears and Hex is forced to fall back on his old ways.
