A MAN AT WAR WITH THE ENEMY - AND HIS OWN DEMONS...

Geordie Sharp, a sergeant in the SAS, is struggling to pick up the threads of his army career.

Wounded in the Gulf War, he returns to Hereford to find his home life in tatters. As he trains with Northern Ireland Troop, a murder in his family fires him up with personal hatred of the IRA.

Posted to Belfast, he discovers that his adversary is Declan Farrell, a leading player in the Provisional IRA. Sharp sets out to stalk and kill his man.

Never has there been a more graphic account of the SAS in action, never a thriller so authentically grounded in the twists and turns of undercover warfare.

Hard as nails

Tough, high-testosterone stuff, gripping

—— Glasgow Herald

Ryan has come up with a big-balled romp that's just dying to be read in the company of a beer, a sun lounger and a holiday in the Mediterranean

—— Maxim

Absorbing, chilling and dripping with evil atmosphere

—— The Times

Rather in the way that Dire Straits were the Trojan horse that kickstarted the CD industry, Mankell's novels became the standard bearer for foreign crime in translation...the writer is a man of rare skills

—— Barry Forshaw , Daily Express

Murder Most Fab is filthy, very funny and will be adored by his fans

—— Mark Sanderson , Evening Standard

Clary is a good writer ... A bit as you'd expect the author himself to be, Murder Most Fab has a dirty mouth and scant regard for morals but it is also very pleasant company

—— Louis Wise , Daily Express

With all the ingredients that made Clary a success, plus an extra-large helping of sinister storytelling, Murder Most Fab is viciously funny and deliciously salacious

—— Rob Dawson , Gay Times
