Luke McCallin was born in 1972 in Oxford, grew up in Africa, went to school around the world and has worked with the United Nations as a humanitarian relief worker and peacekeeper in the Caucasus, the Sahel, and the Balkans. His experiences have driven his writing, in which he explores what happens to normal people - those stricken by conflict, by disaster - put under abnormal pressures.
A gripping, original thriller * Sunday Times * Irresistible... McCallin once again combines authoritative characterisations with an incisive picture of a dangerous historical milieu * Financial Times * Read, be entertained and learn about events that influenced history. With the fire lit and a whisky on the arm of the chair, could there be a better way to spend an evening? * LoveReading * What one can confidently say is that Rheinhardt is a admirable and resourceful hero - so much so that I intend to seek out the earlier books in the series and look forward eagerly to the next one * Scotsman * This book is worth reading just for its visceral evocation of trench warfare, but there are also complex characters and a labyrinthine murder mystery to enjoy. And all beautifully written -- David Downing, author of Wedding Station
