Summary
Learn the secret – or die trying
Has ex-SAS soldier Ben Hope finally got out of his depth?
That’s the question Ben faces when the hunt for a missing girl takes him to China. He’s a stranger in a strange land – but he’s also the victim’s only hope. To make things worse, she’s almost family.
As the pressure mounts, so does the gruesome death toll. With ruthless enemies in pursuit and an unlikely alliance with an enigmatic detective his only lifeline, Ben realises that this situation is far more explosive than even he’d bargained for. Suddenly it’s no longer just the missing girl’s fate depending on him.
At the heart of the mystery lies an ancient secret dating back to China’s first emperor and the legendary Terracotta Army – a secret that people will still kill for, millennia later. Ben Hope has never turned his back on those in need, and he’s no stranger to tough odds. But can he survive long enough to discover the truth – and is he ready for the consequences?
Critic reviews
‘Compelling from the first page until the last, Mariani and his fabulous protagonist Ben Hope entertain in a gripping tale that will have you turning the pages well into the night’ Mark Dawson
‘Thrilling. Scott Mariani is at the top of his game’ Andy McDermott
‘A high level of realism … the action scenes come thick and fast. Like the father of the modern thriller, Frederick Forsyth, Mariani has a knack for embedding his plots in the fears and preoccupations of their time’ Shots Magazine

Ben is back and finding his way through China
I love this series, the latest book is a standard format story from the series, well delivered and entertaining. I do how ever think the Ben Hope character is a little stagnant currently, bit of trauma in his life would be good to spice up the underlying storyline of the series, maybe a relapse to alcoholism

Brilliant as always
Brilliant and captivating as always.
Interesting to see Ben navigate such a (to him) foreign world. Oh and Colin Mace IS Ben Hope at this point. I cannot imagine these books being narrated by anyone else.
