Includes a foreword by Ian Sharp, action director of the classic James Bond film Goldeneye.


About the Author:

Red Riley joined the British Army at the age of 18. After basic training, he volunteered for Pilot Training and qualified as an operational helicopter pilot going on to serve in Germany, Northern Ireland, Canada, Belize and Cyprus. At the age of 36, he left the Army Air Corps and transferred to the SAS. In 1980, Riley was a member of the United Kingdom Counter Terrorist team, which laid siege to the Iranian Embassy taken over by heavily armed terrorists later that year. In 1982, Riley escaped internment in Chile during the Falklands War as part of an audacious top-secret attempt to attack the Argentinian mainland. In 1989, when Riley left the army, he was quickly recruited by MI6 where he served until 2015. His autobiography, Kisses from Nimbus, was published in 2017. Riley and his wife Carol now split their time between homes in Manchester, England and the Mediterranean island of Mallorca, Spain.

Ian Sharp is an English film and television director. Widely admired for his television and film work, he is perhaps best known as the second unit director of the James Bond classic, Goldeneye, starring Pierce Brosnan. His work on that film's action sequences are considered among the best in the series.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
