The Crocodile Hunter by Gerald Seymour
'Compelling . . . almost Dickensian' The Times 'The best thriller writer in the world' Daily Telegraph ***** Jonas Merrick. At MI5 they call him 'the eternal flame', because he never goes out. Never goes undercover, or on surveillance, or kicking down doors. If he's studying a map, he's probably planning his caravan holiday. But what the hot-shots fail to notice in Jonas is a steely concentration, a ruthless ability to find the enemy who hides in plain sight like a submerged crocodile, waiting for prey. Cameron Jilkes. A young man from a broken background, trained as a Jihadi in the harshest theatre of war. Coming ashore near Dover, he plans to live unnoticed, before unleashing a terrifying strike. And this time, Jonas Merrick must go out - to hunt the crocodile himself. Featuring a chapter from the new Jonas Merrick novel The Foot Soldiers, publishing in 2022 ***** Readers love THE CROCODILE HUNTER: 'Another winner from Gerald Seymour' 5* 'An outstanding book and thoroughly recommended' 5* 'Every year without fail . . . Gerald Seymour comes up with a masterful thriller . . . A wonderful read from a master of his craft' 5*
