In the gripping sequel, Red Mist, Mallory confronts his dark past while trying to protect a family in distress, leading to intense action and moral dilemmas.
In Red Mist, the second thrilling installment of Ant Middleton's Mallory series, readers are reintroduced to the complex character of Mallory, a former Special Forces veteran turned vigilante. Now hiding in a small French village, Mallory struggles with his darker impulses while attempting to live a quiet life. However, his resolve is tested when he encounters an elderly man in distress, worried about his granddaughter's involvement with a dangerous young man. This chance meeting reignites Mallory's instinct to help those in need, drawing him back into a world of conflict and peril.
As Mallory becomes embroiled in a turf war, the stakes escalate, requiring all of his specialized skills and instincts to navigate the treacherous landscape. The narrative captures the tension and excitement of his mission while delving into the psychological battles he faces. Readers will find themselves rooting for Mallory as he confronts both external foes and his own inner demons.
Red Mist is not just a story of action and suspense; it explores themes of redemption and the moral complexities of vigilantism. With gripping prose and authentic storytelling, Middleton crafts a tale that keeps readers on the edge of their seats. As the plot unfolds, the question remains: will Mallory's quest for justice lead to his ultimate downfall or a chance at redemption?
Ant Middleton is up there with Andy McNab and Chris Ryan when it comes to walking the walk and talking the talk. Great to see Mallory back in action - my favourite vigilante! * Stephen Leather *
Mallory is an engaging protagonist... the inspirations are chosen with taste and the action is all too credible. You just know Mallory could eat three Shredded Wheat. * The Times *
I loved Red Mist, not only because it's a gripping, rollercoaster read, but because Middleton's hero Mallory is, like Lee Child's Jack Reacher, a guy you really want to win. -- Damien Lewis * Daily Express *
Red Mist is a smart, taut and hard-hitting thriller that grabbed me from the first page and held on tight until the end. In Mallory we have a hero who not only accepts the darker side of his nature, he revels in it, making him a captivating protagonist but also a man you wouldn't want to cross. * Giles Kristian, Sunday Times bestselling author of Where Blood Runs Cold *
Move over Jack Reacher, you have a serious rival! * Yours Magazine *
Whisper it softly but Jack Reacher just may have a rival in the form of ex-Special Forces soldier turned knight-in-shining-armour vigilante Mallory * Shots *
