Red Ice: A Lachlan Fox Thriller Book 5

by James Phelan

The gripping new Lachlan Fox novel from the author of Fox Hunt, Patriot Act, Blood Oil and Liquid Gold.

Just a few days after the conclusion of Liquid Gold, Lachlan Fox is thrown back into the midst of the action when the dangerous and powerful Umbra organization offers to trade a man they’ve taken hostage for one of their own operatives. After the CIA claim they won’t negotiate with terrorists, Umbra begins to cut off the natural gas supply to Europe. This is just a small indication of the level of chaos they’re prepared to inflict. Assassinations follow…

Red Ice is a post-cold war thriller set in an unstable Europe, where control of resources equals true power. It’s a novel in which Russia is under the influence of corrupt capitalists, the pace is non-stop, the stakes are inconceivably high, the villain a true megalomaniac – and ex-Navy hero Lachlan Fox is seriously challenged.
