Cold Kill by Stephen Leather
A trawler in the North Sea is in trouble and its cargo is hundreds of illegal immigrants. Dan Shepherd is sent to lead the rescue operation and then to investigate the roots of the tragedy which leads him to a counterfeit currency ring and a huge people trafficking network. But the web reaches wider still and as he looks deeper he finds that the money generated from the crime is destined for the greatest terrorist attack of all.
