In May 1987, a successful SAS ambush resulted in the deaths of eight IRA terrorists in Loughgall. Aware that retaliation was certain, British intelligence went on the alert, and eventually established that the IRA had selected Gibraltar as being a 'soft' target and one identified with British imperialism. In November, the terrorism experts of Madrid's Servicios de Información informed British intelligence that two male members of the IRA had arrived in Southern Spain under false names. British intelligence assumed immediately that the two men were intending wither to murder some of the British residents on the Costa del Sol or to attack a British Army target on Gibraltar. The changing guard outside the Governor of Gibraltar's residence was judged to provide the most likely opportunity for such an attack. The most likely date was 8 March 1988, when the band parade ceremony of the 1st Battalion of the Royal Anglian Regiment was due to take place. For the next few months, British and Spanish intelligence services kept the two men under surveillance, waiting for them to travel from Spain to Gibraltar. In February, MI5 reported that an Irishwoman travelling under a false identity had repeatedly visited the rock and attended the guard ceremony. Now that there appeared to be little doubt about the target, the British government decided to send a hit team to Gibraltar to prevent the planned bombing, if necessary by killing the terrorists. The only men even considered for this dangerous operation were the legendary Special Air Service the SAS! Soldier R SAS: Death on Gibraltar tells the story of what was to become the most controversial of all SAS campaigns: a deadly cat-and-mouse game that called into play all the expertise and tenacity at the SAS team's disposal.

When British troops first deployed to Northern Ireland in 1969, to halt the threat of a new rising force - the Provisional Irish Republican Army - they could not have known that the longest campaign in the British Army's history was beginning. While patrols, vehicle bombs and incendiary speeches are the defining memories of the Troubles, the real war was fought out of sight and out of mind. For thirty years, Britain's Special Forces waged a ferocious, secretive struggle against a ruthless and implacable enemy. Harry McCallion offers a unique insight into nearly every major military action and operation in the Province, having served seven tours with the Parachute Regiment, passed selection for 14 Intelligence Company, completed six years with the SAS anti-terrorism team, and joined the Royal Ulster Constabulary, receiving two commendations for bravery during his service. This book is his blistering account of the history of Britain's war against the IRA between 1970 and 1988 - the most murderous years of the conflict - drawn from his own operational experience and backed by first-hand accounts and unpublished documents. From new insights into high-profile killings and riveting accounts of enemy contact, to revelations about clandestine missions and strategies in combating a merciless enemy, Undercover War is the definitive inside story of the battle against the IRA, one of the most dangerous and effective terrorist organisations in recent history.

From the New York Times bestselling author of A Legacy of Spies. "A novel that beckons us beyond any and all expectations."—Jonathan Yardley, The Washington Post A counter-terrorist operation, code-named Wildlife, is being mounted on the British crown colony of Gibraltar. Its purpose: to capture and abduct a high-value jihadist arms buyer. Its authors: an ambitious Foreign Office Minister, a private defense contractor who is also his bosom friend, and a shady American CIA operative of the evangelical far-right. So delicate is the operation that even the Minister’s personal private secretary, Toby Bell, is not cleared for it. Three years later, a disgraced Special Forces Soldier delivers a message from the dead. Was Operation Wildlife the success it was cracked up to be—or a human tragedy that was ruthlessly covered up? Summoned by Sir Christopher “Kit” Probyn, retired British diplomat, to his decaying Cornish manor house, and closely observed by Kit’s daughter, Emily, Toby must choose between his conscience and duty to his Service. If the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing, how can he keep silent?

A mean and dirty war is being waged on British soil. In the 1970s that war was at its bloodiest. Sectarian violence was an almost daily occurrence and the terrorist groups, who financed their operations through robbery, fraud and extortion, engaged in torture, assassination and wholesale slaughter. To cope with the terrorists' activities in the British Army needed the support of exceptional soldiers who could operate deep undercover. The group chosen as most suitable for this task was the legendary Special Air Service the SAS! Deployed in Northern Ireland in 1976, the regiment was soon embroiled in some of the most secretive, dangerous and controversial activities in its history. These included plain-clothes work in the towns and cities, the running of operational posts in rural areas, surveillance and intelligence-gathering, ambushes and daring cross-border raids. Soldier E SAS: Sniper Fire in Belfast is the fifth in a series of novels based on this extraordinary regiment a thrilling 'factoid' adventure about the most daring soldiers in military history: the SAS!
