About the book

About Just when We are Safest

'MI5 will change my life tonight.' The entry in the secret diary of Mary R. Walker (Metropolitan Police) is all too accurate. When Walker is murdered in a terrorist attack, her lover, Alan Rosslyn, undercover Senior Investigation Officer, is seconded to the hunt for a killer of unparalleled skill and savagery. The deeper Rosslyn penetrates the increasing number of atrocities, the clearer it becomes that the enemy is not only terrorism but the rivalries and corruption within the reformed and reorganized Security Services. 'Gadney is one of the most skilled writers around . . . The climax is perfectly paced, with abundant surprises and betrayals. The final scenes of violence are shockingly intense and the last page contains a twist of great brilliance . . . A first class book.' Sunday Times
