Covert Ops

Danger On The Island

by Steve Barker

Some islands hide more than secrets. Some hide weapons capable of changing the rules of war.

In Covert-Ops: Danger on the Island Book 2, Steve and his team are dragged back into the shadows in a tactically sharp military thriller set on British soil. The Isle of Wight should be quiet: beaches, woodland, lanes, and civilian calm. But beneath the surface, something lethal is moving.

Steve has survived St Halb. He has money, a new lodge, and every reason to avoid danger. But peace does not fit him. The PTSD remains. The nightmares come. The anger is never far away. Then Simon brings him a job the police can never touch.

Mark, CEO of Bashp Enterprises and an old military contact, has lost something catastrophic: sniper rifles, smart ammunition, optics, programming kits, and control systems built for the British military. In the wrong hands, this stolen weapons technology could give criminals, mercenaries, or terrorists the power to kill with terrifying precision.

The trail leads to Dennis, a former employee hiding on the island, armed men, drugs, people smuggling, and a ruthless criminal network.

Steve, Simon, George, and Derek go to work like British military veterans: surveillance, route checks, observation posts, contingency planning, and controlled violence. Woodland tracks, boats, and dark water become the mission map.

Then the assault begins.

Across America Woods and the Medina River, precision fractures into chaos. IEDs detonate. Gunfire tears through the night. Close-quarter combat becomes survival at arm's length. The objective is simple: recover the weapons, erase the threat, and vanish before the island understands.

Darkly funny, action-packed, and packed with covert missions, tactical suspense, special forces realism, and British military fiction, Danger on the Island is for listeners who like their thrillers sharp, relentless, and impossible to switch off.
