Author's 3rd title and debut novel,after non-fiction 'BRAVO TWO ZERO' and 'IMMEDIATE ACTION'. Andy McNab gripped two million readers with his two previous autobiographical international No.1 bestsellers.Now comes an explosive debut novel so authentic in its operational detail that it moves the action thriller into another dimension. Nick Stone left the Special Air Service in 1988,soon after being involved in the shooting of three IRA terrorists in Gibraltar.Now working for British Intelligence on deniable operations,he discovers the seemingly senseless murders of fellow SAS soldier Kev Brown and his family in Washington,DC.Only Kelly,seven years old,has survived - and immediately the two of them are on the run from unidentified pursuers. Stone doesn't even know which of them is the target.Stone is a master of his trade,resourceful and ruthless.On his own,he would stand a chance of escape.But,needing to protect the girl,he is hamstrung as together they are plunged into a dark world of violence and corruption in which friend cannot be told from foe. As the blistering narrative drives to its blazing and unexpected climax,Stone discovers the shocking truth about governments,terrorism and commerce - and the greed that binds the three together. 'REMOTE CONTROL' is a new kind of thriller,gritty,vivid and menacing, with a pace that never lets up.Other thriller writers talk the talk.Only McNab has walked the walk. Want more Andy McNAB titles?

Synopsis

Andy McNab was involved in special operations in the Middle and Far East, South and Central America, and Northern Ireland. He has lectured at the FBI's training academy at Quantico and spent seven months in Hollywood as technical adviser on the Michael Mann movie Heat. Remote Control was number one on the Sunday Times (London) bestseller list for seven weeks. Combined with the sales of his two nonfiction books, McNab has become the bestselling author of the 1990s in Britain. Because of the highly sensitive and clandestine nature of his work with the SAS, he is wanted by a number of the world's terrorist groups. His whereabouts, therefore, cannot be disclosed.
