For Valour: Nick Stone Thriller 16

the long version

When a young trooper is shot in the head at the regiment's renowned Killing House, Nick Stone is perfectly qualified to investigate the mysterious circumstances more deeply. He has just returned from Moscow - still trying to come to terms with the fact that his girlfriend and baby son are safer there without him - so he combines an unrivalled understanding of the Special Forces landscape with a detachment that should allow him to remain in cover. But less than 48 hours later, a second death catapults him back into the firing line - into the telescopic sights of an unknown assassin bent on protecting a secret that could strike at the heart of the establishment Stone has spent most of his life fighting to protect.
