When Islamic militants infiltrate an elite British counter-narcotics programme, disaster is averted thanks to ex-SAS soldiers John Patterson and Dusty Miller. But when fallout from the affair threatens to topple the West's fragile Afghan alliance and expose failings inside the UK's new crime fighting agency, John and Dusty suddenly find themselves on the wrong side of the law - and on the run. One place on earth holds the key to clearing their names: Nuristan, a remote Afghan province and notorious terrorist haven. But their journey to freedom will thrust them deeper into the Afghan conflict than they ever imagined. Battling hostile terrain and Islamic fighters, John and Dusty emerge the unlikely champions of an ancient community torn apart by al-Qaeda and western forces. An action-packed tale of honour and betrayal, inspired by Rudyard Kipling's The Man Who Would Be King, The Infidelis thrilling, gripping and deeply relevant to the great military and political issues of our time.

It takes a little while to warm up, and I found it took some getting used to the untitled swapping from past to present, chapter by chapter, which was actually rather jarring until you grasp the pattern in your mind.
The characters are believable and likeable, the plot is realistically possible and the ending is good (although part of me does prefer stories that 'resolve' rather than leave it up to the readers mind).
I do have to say I did prefer his non fiction work though, if I was going to read one of them again, it would be 'The Circuit'. ( )
