Afghanistan 2021. The Taliban takeover.

Surrounded and outnumbered by their Taliban attackers, a small group of Afghan special forces fights their way out of their base and races toward Kabul and the last of the flights leaving the country. 

A team of seasoned SAS soldiers is deployed to Kabul to assist in extracting intelligence assets for the MI6 Station there. But as the Taliban tighten their deadly noose around the city, the simple locate and recovery task soon becomes a lot more complicated. 

And when a legendary Taliban commander arrives in Kabul and learns that there are special forces operating in his city, he knows there is only one thing to do: Hunt them down, and kill them.

With hundreds of Taliban searching the city for them, the SAS team’s mission becomes one of survival and staying a step ahead of their hunters. And with the planned evacuation of Kabul descending into chaos, the team knows that if they don’t make it back to the airport fast, they won’t make it out at all. 

Based around true events, A Day Ahead of the Devil is the latest action-packed thriller from the bestselling author of Asset Seven.
