A Soldier's Revenge: A Will Cochrane Novel
Description
Will Cochrane
lacks James Bonds gadgets but relies on encyclopedic knowledge [and] physical prowess
that even Jack Reacher would envy.
Publishers Weekly on Dark Spies
Will Cochrane wakes up in a hotel room and finds blood on his hands. When he enters the bathroom, he finds a woman brutally murdered and his own bloody handprint nearby. Will has no memory of the night before, but he is sure hes being framed. The police will arrive soon, and he can find no evidence that another person, the real killer, was ever in the room.
Will had decided to adopt the sons of a former colleague who was killed in the line of duty, and he was going to see them before he awakened to the carnage. But now he realizes he has a powerful enemy who is out for revenge. And his only chance to clear his name is to find the real killer before the police can find him.
In Virginia, Will discovers the family he was on his way to visit has already been attackedand his only lead is a secret recording of a voice that might be the killers. With the FBI and even his friends pursuing him, Cochrane must track down his adversary, save the boys, and prove his innocence before its too late.
Dunn, who was a field officer in M16, has created a plot with plenty of action
and lots of twists and turns. . . . Nonstop action and relentless danger.

|“A timely story of espionage and intrigue… Chilling.” - Iron Mountain Daily News on The Spy House
“Another page-turner… A locked-room twist on the espionage novel… Dunn maintains his up-tempo pace without sacrificing character development and while allowing the tension to build incrementally. The ending makes clear that another entry in the series is on the way, and it can’t arrive fast enough.” - Booklist on The Spy House
“Dunn’s exciting fourth Spycatcher novel finds Will Cochrane, the extraordinary agent who serves both the CIA and MI6, in the Norwegian Arctic… Cochrane’s few allies are almost helpless as he treks back from Norway to Washington, D.C., against incredible odds and obstacles… Great action sequences and a clever if complicated plot make this a satisfying read.” - Publishers Weekly on Dark Spies
“Lots of twists and turns . . . nonstop action and relentless danger.” - Associated Press on Spycatcher
“Fans will enjoy the trademark momentum and the inclusion of several long-running subplots and characters.” - Publishers Weekly
“One of the things that makes A Soldier’s Revenge so good, aside from the complexity of the plot, the harrowing escapes and spy craft that Dunn artfully employs, is the visceral feelings that he can convey. . . . Cochrane is no emotionless Bond…he’s much more real.” - blackdogspeaks.com on A Soldier's Revenge
“Just when you think you have this maze of double-dealing figured out-surprise, it isn’t what you think. All the elements of a classic espionage story are here. The novel moves with relentless momentum, scattering bodies in its wake.” - Kirkus on Dark Spies
