The Angry Sea

A John Carr Thriller, Book 2

By: James Deegan

Narrated by: Joshua Manning

Former SAS Sergeant Major John Carr is relaxing on a Spanish beach, when a man with dark eyes attracts his attention. Fixated on a group of young Britons, the man doesn’t notice Carr and soon moves on.

Within the hour, the Costa del Sol will be plunged into one of the most audacious and horrifying terrorist attacks Europe has ever seen.

In a co-ordinated strike, armed men storm both the beach and a cruise ship anchored further up the coast. But the terrorists - hiding personal greed under the veil of religious extremism - have an even bolder plan.

Constrained by the sensitive political situation, MI6 and the Prime Minister must confront the possibility of leading a secret operation against a brutal enemy. And then find the right man to head it....

Enter John Carr.

Critic reviews

"Brutal and brilliant." (Tom Marcus, author of Soldier Spy)

"You couldn’t make it up. Brilliant." (Jeffrey Archer)

"James Deegan writes with masterful authority and unsurpassed experience as he transports the reader deep into the troubles of Northern Ireland - and then brings them back up to date with a dramatic bang." (Chantelle Taylor, Combat Medic and author of Battleworn)

Why did it have to end?

James Deegan is a master storyteller. I came here looking for similar books to Jack Carr, Lee Child et al but this is better. Deegan is a superb storyteller, he’s also getting better, the first book was amazing, this is even better. Absolutely loved it. Just wish there was a third book in the series already.

Great narration too. Some of his accents are a bit dodgy but his delivery is great and he really fits the bill.
