Publisher's Synopsis
Disillusioned after serving in Iraq, Bernie Mallory left the Royal Marines. Now he's working in private security, safeguarding civilians and journalists in war zones. The job gives him the cover to return to Iraq and unearth a secret that has lain buried since he was last there, in a bombed-out graveyard near Fallujah. Jake Stanza is the journalist he's guarding. Stanza has his own mission: to find a kidnapped fellow American - for the kidnapped man has a story that could make his fortune. Abdul, their translator, is an Iraqi ex-policeman. Seemingly a nice, polite guy, war has left him scarred - physically and mentally. Mallory and Stanza trust their translator implicitly, but behind his smiling façade he is harbouring dark and potentially deadly secrets...
