A counter-terrorist operation, code-named Wildlife, is being mounted on the British crown colony of Gibraltar.Β Its purpose: to capture and abduct a high-value jihadist arms buyer. Its authors: an ambitious Foreign Office Minister, a private defense contractor who is also his bosom friend, and a shady American CIA operative of the evangelical far-right. So delicate is the operation that even the Ministerβs personal private secretary, Toby Bell, is not cleared for it.
Three years later, a disgraced Special Forces Soldier delivers a message from the dead. Was Operation Wildlife the success it was cracked up to beβor a human tragedy that was ruthlessly covered up? Summoned by Sir Christopher βKitβ Probyn, retired British diplomat, to his decaying Cornish manor house, and closely observed by Kitβs daughter, Emily, Toby must choose between his conscience and duty to his Service. If the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing, how can he keep silent?
