NOTHING CAN STAY HIDDEN FOREVER...

During the Soviet-Afghan war an elite team of operatives were trained in the mountains of Afghanistan. Loyal to the Provisional Irish Republican Army, they were known only by their codename, Black Shuck.

In the years that followed -- betrayed from within by the internal power struggles of the IRA -- the team members were hunted down. Three survived, fading into the turbulent streets of Northern Ireland. To this day, their identities remain a mystery -- but nothing can stay hidden forever.

For years, Declan McIver has lived under the radar -- married to a beautiful woman and operating a successful business -- but that life is about to change. When a planned meeting with an old friend goes horribly wrong, Declan finds himself on the run from a shadowy conspiracy that will stop at nothing to keep their evil intentions a closely guarded secret.

To survive, he'll have to rely on long dormant training and reach deep within himself to a place and time he'd hoped to never return. As his past is laid open for the world to see and events spiral further out of control -- who will win and at what cost?


"Veil of Civility's complex plot is woven together well, and the character of Declan McIver seems to be part James Bond, part Mitch Rapp, part Joe Pike, with a dash of Gabriel Allon. This book looks set to continue Ian Graham's rise as one of the new breed of thriller writers!"
                                                                                        - Ian Walkey (author of No Remorse)

"Superb effort! Veil of Civility reminded me of the hard-as-nails spy thrillers of the 1980s, upgraded to modern day reality! Scary and original!"
                                                            - Ian Kharitinov (author of The Russian Renaissance)
