Tommy Byrne, recently returned injured from Afghanistan, is helping police to uncover a supply route that is sending electronic switches to be used in bombs overseas. What follows will lead Tommy and his fellow bomb disposal operators in Afghanistan into a world where the terrorists seem to know just what he and friends will be doing, and when. From a dusty compound in Southern Afghanistan to a graveyard in the northeast of England, the terrorists assisted by an insider and the shadowy figure of the Father are intent on targeting the very people who defuse the bombs they build. Racing against time, Tommy, along with police surveillance operators supported by Special Forces soldiers, slowly uncover a terrorist plan that will send shock waves around the land and will show the world that even in death there is a time to die.
