The Angry Sea - John Carr Book 2 (Hardback)
James Deegan (author)- We can order this from the publisher
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.

“Family men bear grudges”
Keeps you interested from start to finish.
You have the feeling, that some of the info and characters have been taken from real situations.
A good read when travelling, but not on a beach read.
“Well worth the wait.”
I read this genre of book when I need to escape from the world after a tough day. I think Deegan's two publications are as good as, or better, than anything else out there. Buy and enjoy!
