Harry's Game

By: Gerald Seymour

Narrated by: John O'Mahoney

A Sunday Times '100 best crime novels and thrillers since 1945' pick!

A British cabinet minister is gunned down on a London street by an IRA assassin. In the wake of national outcry, the authorities must find the hitman. But the trail is long cold, the killer gone to ground in Belfast, and they must resort to more unorthodox methods to unearth him. Ill prepared and poorly briefed, undercover agent Harry Brown is sent into the heart of enemy territory to infiltrate the terrorists.

But when it is a race against the clock, mistakes are made and corners cut. For Harry Brown, alone in a city of strangers, where an intruder is the subject of immediate gossip and rumour, one false move is enough to leave him fatally isolated...

Critic reviews

PRAISE FOR GERALD SEYMOUR:

You don't read Gerald Seymour, you commit to it totally. His stories have amazing detail, yet you still fly through them. And your effort is well rewarded

The great strength of Seymour's writing lies in his depiction of the poor bloody infantry of crime and policing

Seymour's finger is always on the current socio-political pulse

Thrilling plots and . . . credible and sympathetic characters

Supreme spy writer

[Charles] Cumming is matched only by Gerald Seymour now when it comes to recounting field operations
