race-against-time thriller and number one bestselling author of
Siege. Included is an exclusive extract of Simon Kernick's
new book Ultimatum (out 31st January 2013)
'A debt is a debt is a debt.'
It's not your debt. It's your cousin's. And he's done a runner.
So now the local gangland bosses have come to you for
repayment. They aren't taking 'no' for an answer, but they will take
your fingers - one by one - if you don't get hold of the money. Very soon.
You've got to think fast. You've got to act fast. And then you'll
have to get out of here - as fast as you can.
Simon Kernick is one of Britain's most exciting thriller
writers. He arrived on the crime writing scene with his highly
acclaimed debut novel The Business of Dying, the story of a
corrupt cop moonlighting as a hitman. Simon's big breakthrough
came with his novel Relentless which was the biggest selling
thriller of 2007. His most recent crime thrillers include The Last
Ten Seconds, The Payback and Siege.
Simon talks both on and off the record to members of the Met's
Special Branch and the Anti-Terrorist Branch and the Serious and
Organised Crime Agency, so he gets to hear first hand what actually
happens in the dark and murky underbelly of UK crime.
