Task Force Nightshade A J Huston

The first installment of a military thriller trilogy by Aj Huston, Task Force Nightshade is a high-speed ride through the worlds of military intelligence, political intrigue, courage and betrayal. When an iconic London tourist attraction suffers a devastating attack from a lone assailant, a member of the House of Lords recognises the need for a new way of thinking. Will Richards, an Army Officer with a colourful background, is asked to establish Task Force Nightshade. An extremely sensitive codeword has been used in a foreign embassy, and the codeword belongs to Task Force Nightshade. In a rapidly developing course of events, Richards pieces together a puzzle which leads to treason at the highest levels of the British Government and Military Establishment. Enlisting the help of an American journalist, a Cabinet Minister's daughter, several criminals and some very dangerous men and women, Richards races to save the Prime Minister's life, and the country from a coup d'état.
