Dan Shepherd is used to putting his life on the line. It goes with the territory when you’re an undercover cop. Now working for Britain’s top anti-organized crime agency, Shepherd is pitting his wits against the toughest criminals in the country. But when the man who once saved his life is kidnapped in the badlands of Iraq, thrown into a basement, and threatened with execution, Shepherd has to decide whether his loyalties lie with his country, his career, or his friend. Shepherd and his former SAS colleagues realize that the hostage has been abandoned by the British government and that, officially, nothing is being done to rescue him. And with the execution only days away, Shepherd knows that the only way to save his friend’s life is to put himself on the firing line in the most dangerous city in the world—Baghdad.
Ransacking the land west of the Pecos, bounty hunter and mistress of disguise Cody Jameson hopes to collect a reward for bringing in accused robber Luke Majors, a plan that is thwarted when she falls in love with him. Original.
The setting is the Texas-Mexico border. The time is our own, when rustlers have given way to drug-runners and small towns have become free-fire zones. A good old boy named Llewellyn Moss finds a pickup truck surrounded by dead men. A load of heroin and two million dollars in cash are still in the back. When Moss takes the money, he sets off a chain reaction that not even the law can contain. Encompassing themes as ancient as the Bible and as bloodily contemporary as this morning’s headlines, No Country for Old Men is a triumph.
