Black Art of Killing

THE ACTION-PACKED THRILLER THAT FUSES BRAWN AND BRAINS

Oxford University has never employed a man like Leo Black before.

Now an adored lecturer destined for tenure among the gleaming spires, Leo Black served the SAS for twenty years with distinction.

When the friend he fought alongside is killed in Paris trying to prevent the abduction of a young British scientist, the world Leo has tried to put behind him begins to reel him back in.

But as Leo gets closer to the startling truth about his friend's death, he faces a difficult decision.

Forget the training, the loyalty, the service and be the man the university wants him to be . . .

Or remember that not so long ago, he was a truly exceptional soldier.

THRILLERUL PLIN DE ACTIUNE, CARE UNE BRAWN SI BRAINSOxford University nu a angajat niciodata un om ca Leo Black pana acum. Acum, un lector adorat destinat sa fie titular printre turle stralucitoare, Leo Black a servit SAS timp de douazeci de ani cu distinctie. Cand prietenul cu care a luptat alaturi este ucis la Paris incercand sa previna rapirea unui tanar om de stiinta britanic, lumea pe care Leul a incercat sa o puna in spatele lui incepe sa-l impinga inapoi. Dar, pe masura ce Leo se apropie de adevarul uimitor despre moartea prietenului sau, se confrunta cu o decizie dificila. .Uita de pregatire, loialitate, serviciu si fii omul pe care universitatea isi doreste sa fie.
