About On the Rocks

A schoolboy lies alone and dying on a Scottish mountainside. An experienced rescue team can't find him. One man is the boy's only hope. When news of Martin Princeton's disappearance reaches international fugitive, Ryan Kaine, he abandons the evidence that could help clear his name and heads to the Scottish Highlands. Officially, the authorities want Kaine in custody. Unofficially, there's a bounty on his head. Still hampered by injuries from the events that turned him into the most wanted man in Europe, Kaine uses the heavy burden of killing eighty-three people aboard civilian aircraft Flight BE1555 to fuel his new mission. He will protect the grieving families, 'The 83', at all costs. Armed only with charm and an intimate knowledge of the area, Kaine has to convince the rescue team of his good intentions, and find out everything he can about Martin's disappearance before they discover who Kaine really is. Can Kaine use his mountaineering knowledge, special forces training, and rapport with the locals to find the missing boy in time and bring Kaine one step closer to redemption? Can be read as a standalone novel. From the pen of Kerry J Donovan, Ryan Kaine: On the Rocks, is an action-packed, heart-in-mouth novel set in the unforgiving mountains of Scotland. The second in the #1 bestselling thriller series confirms Ryan Kaine as a solid addition to the great military action characters in the tradition of Lee Child, Mark Dawson, and Chris Ryan.
