Narrator: Michael Page
American socialite Sarah Talbot had everything going for her: a multi-million
dollar business, a large circle of well-placed friends, and a successful marriage
to English aristocrat and army colonel Edward Talbot.
Talbot is killed in the Falklands Campaign leaving her with her adored step-son
Eric, a student at Cambridge. Then Eric dies in Paris of a drug overdose, and
when Sarah seeks to uncover the mysterious circumstances surrounding his death
she finds all official roads to justice are blocked.
If she wants satisfaction she must take matters into her own hands. And Sarah
is determined: someone must pay. When she meets enigmatic young former SAS
sergeant Sean Egan, an eloquent lone gun and the ultimate soldier, she knows she
has the weapon she needs. A study in contradictions, Egan is a careful, thoughtful
man, but a man to whom killing is as natural as breathing. Together they embark
on a quest for revenge that will lead them from London to Paris, to Sicily and
Northern Ireland, and then back to London and a shattering climax on the dark,
brooding wharves of the river Thames. Together Sean and Sarah will plumb the
depths of the underworld, a world in which man's capacity for destruction is
almost beyond belief, a world in which revenge truly is a "season in hell."
Jack Higgins is a 'nom de plume' of Harry Patterson who has also written under
the names of Martin Fallon, James Graham, Hugh Marlowe and his own name. Because
Jack Higgins is the most recognizable name of this lot, I have listed all of his
books under this name.
