Danny Pearson has settled into his role as Director of Operations at Greenwood Security. The ex-SAS soldier finally has a steady life - a house, a job, and friends who keep dragging him on nights out he'd rather skip. But when MI6 spymaster Howard calls in a debt, Danny is pulled back into the shadows for his most dangerous mission yet.
Two hundred prototype military rifles and next-generation body armour have been stolen from a Ministry of Defence facility. An undercover MI6 agent investigating the theft has been found dead in a river with three bullets in him. Someone inside the British government is leaking secrets, and the intelligence services can't trust their own people.
Howard needs someone off the grid. Someone with no official links to the agency. Someone who can infiltrate the team of ex-military mercenaries responsible - led by Danny's former SAS comrade, Commander Rex Benton.
Going undercover with no backup and no weapon, Danny must earn the trust of men trained to spot deception and survive a world where one wrong move means a bullet in the head. But as he gets closer to the truth, he discovers the stolen weapons were just the beginning. Behind Benton's team stands a rogue general with a terrifying plan: a false-flag terrorist attack on British soil designed to assassinate the Prime Minister and seize control of the country's security apparatus.
With a deadly heist, a vengeful Serbian crime family, and a conspiracy that reaches into the heart of Whitehall, Danny must rely on his lethal instincts and the small team who know he's alive to stop an attack that could change the future of the nation.
Alive Until I Die is the fourth instalment in the internationally bestselling Danny Pearson series. A white-knuckle undercover thriller packed with betrayal, explosive action, and a conspiracy that will keep you turning pages deep into the night.
Perfect for fans of Andy McNab, Chris Ryan, Vince Flynn, and Mark Dawson.
