The President's Daughter
In 1969, across the fetid battlegrounds of Vietnam's Mekong Delta, a young US Special Forces Lieutenant displays the courage that made him a hero. In one reckless moment of bravery, Jake Cazalet rescues a beautiful Frenchwoman and the consequences of this change the entire course of his life.
Now, nearly thirty years later, someone else has discovered the truth about what really happened between the soldier and the Frenchwoman, and is ready to blackmail him. The effect on world peace could be catastrophic. Because Jake Cazalet is now the President of the United States.
Weeks before vital new Middle East peace talks, panic breaks out in Washington when internal security is breached. In London, Brigadier Ferguson of Special Forces is contacted by an imprisoned IRA chief ready to tell all. And on a remote Mediterranean island, a young Frenchwoman is forcibly abducted from her holiday home. The connection between these events is a fanatical Jewish terrorist organization known as the Maccabees: a group so rigorously structured that they have infiltrated the defence systems of three superpowers. A group so ruthless they will eliminate anyone who even gets to hear about their existence. And a group with so many friends in high places that they have discovered the President's darkest secret. Now they are ready to trade. They want the President's signature on the Nemesis Agreement.
Sean Dillon, the legendary IRA enforcer turned British agent, is back as fearless avenger in the explosive new thriller from Jack Higgins. The President's Daughter is a classic adventure from the master at the top of his form.

Drink With The Devil
In 1985 a mysterious individual with the name of Martin Keogh saves a Protestant girl from a mugging in the streets of Belfast and is accepted into the inner sanctum of a breakaway Loyalist faction. As a part of this group, he takes part in an audacious gold-bullion heist in the English Lake District.
In 1995, the peace process in Northern Ireland masks a menacing threat: a dangerous Irish prisoner has escaped with the help of the Mafia and is to an unknown destination in Ireland. If a terrified informer can be relied on, their plans could lead to an arms-buying spree that will throw the province into chaos. Only one man has the ruthlessness and expertise to avert the disaster - the IRA enforcer-turned British secret agent, Sean Dillon.
