A year has passed since the loss of Sandbagger #2 and the Special Ops unit is again up to full strength. When Burnside receives an offer from the head of the Bulgarian secret service to hand over some key information, he treads warily, especially since new Sandbagger #2, Tom Elliot was requested by name. Everyone else in SIS - the Chief, Deputy Chief and Director of Intelligence - think this should be a go and Burnside reluctantly agrees. When the mission turns out badly, Burnside and Sandbagger #1 Willie Caine set off for Sofia to extract their badly wounded colleague.
