The Lethal Payload

Danny Kerr used to be one of the best Hercules pilots in the Royal Air Force. Now he flies grey-market cargo out of Africa, drinks a little too much, and wires money home to a daughter who won't take his calls.

Then a man with clean shoes offers him the kind of money that ends a life like his: train a crew, captain a private airlift, ask no questions.

By the time Danny works out what the aircraft really is — and what it's being built to do to fifty thousand people at a festival of peace — walking away is no longer on the table. His daughter has been found. The exits have been closed, one by one, by a professional who has thought of everything.

He has no badge, no back-up, and no proof. What he has is the one thing his employers can't buy or search: he knows the aeroplane, the crew, and the flight better than any man in the operation. And he has days to take the whole thing apart from the inside — quietly, in plain sight.

The victory that counts is the disaster that never happens. And no one will ever know.
