A world where nuclear warheads can be hidden in a briefcase . A world where bio-plagues are held suspended in a teardrop ... On an Earth where conventional armies are powerless to defend against the devastation wrought by single assassins, the secret organisation known as SPIRAL exists to fight a shadow war against fanatics and rogue states of every creed and political persuasion. Remorseless, unstoppable, of every country and of none, SPIRAL conducts its covert operations throughout the world in a never-ending battle for humanity's survival. But now SPIRAL itself is under attack, and if it falls the world falls with it. For more information on this or other Orbit books visit the Orbit website at www.orbitbooks.co.uk
