When ex-SAS captain Gabriel Wolfe is hired by billionaire Sir Toby Maitland to help him win political office, he discovers that his boss’s ambitions go way beyond Parliament. Now, with Maitland’s juggernaut gathering pace and a violent showdown with the current prime minister imminent, Gabriel must use every ounce of his strength, skills and training to save the country from dictatorship.

Helping Gabriel is an old flame from Swedish Special Forces. Britta Falskog is one tough cookie, with sniper skills and a devil-may-care attitude to the English language. Gabriel and Britta have to face down some seriously evil opponents. Drug-dealing, shotgun-wielding Hells Angels, including their fearsome, one-eyed chapter president, Davis Meeks. An ex-South African secret policeman called Bart Venter with a new career selling illicit arms to anyone with enough cash. And a group of British skinheads, one of whom holds a personal grudge against Gabriel.

But Gabriel Wolfe has more than external threats to defeat. He’s also suffering from PTSD, the result of his last, botched mission for the SAS, deep in the forests of Mozambique. His fallen comrade, Trooper Mickey “Smudge” Smith, haunts his sleeping and waking hours.

Fans of Andy McNab, Chris Ryan, Lee Child and Daniel Silva are saluting Maslen as an author to watch.

If you like your heroes flawed as well as resourceful, you’ll love Gabriel Wolfe. He’s been called “deadlier than Bond”, and “more human than Reacher”.

“Oh! I love this series. Gabriel's latest excursion dealing with terrorism and a religious cult is thrilling from the very first chapter until the last. Andy Maslen has created a gem of a character and I hope it won't be too long before I get the chance to continue reading about him. I love out of nowhere how the plot develops and surprises. No spoilers from me. Just go ahead and read for yourself. You won't regret it!”

Paul Smith | Verified Purchase

“The pace of the narrative is fantastic and draws you right on to the next chapter. I really like the way Andy Maslen creates his locations. Whether the hero is in Oxford Street or in the jungle or the English countryside, he somehow manages to conjure up all the sights, sounds and smells to convince you it's real. If you love a good action thriller, I can totally recommend Condor.”
