Following the murder of a young investigative journalist in France, Luc Hansen, an agent of the elite but shadowy DER, the European Union’s security and intelligence directorate, uncovers a massive fraud and arms running operation orchestrated from within the heart of the European Commission in Brussels. As Luc races to close down the arms route, his investigation is endangered and the life of his partner, Joanna Donnelly, threatened by the existence of a ‘mole’ high inside the DER itself.
As Luc embarks on a high-risk strategy to force his opponents into the open, his team find themselves in extreme danger culminating in a fierce gun battle deep in the Belgian countryside, the outcome of which hangs in the balance.
Reviews for 'Shadows':
Shadows ‘gets one in’ right from the prologue, and seemingly effortlessly keeps the reader turning the pages to find out what happens next. Fast paced, like the world that unfolds in the story...HM, Hong Kong
Here’s a classic secret-agent thriller with all the blood, sex, pizzazz of a modern James Bond – and an even stranger twist that can be revealed right here…The setting for much of the action and suspense is Brussels!
By way of a bloody pursuit and exposé of fraud and gun running, Shadows, the first novel from Alex Hunter, explodes the widely held prejudice by outsiders that this city is boring! What’s more, Luc Hansen, the ex-French Légionnaire hero, is a type of violent-action detective with a secret crime-investigation department for the leviathan that is the European Commission! Another myth blown!
