Lima 3 cover

Kilo 17 was a huge success in paperback in the summer, reaching number 7 on the Bookseller' 'True Crime' bestseller list Harry Ferguson was the consultant for the BBC TV series SPY and he wrote the book of the same name

A dramatic true-crime sequel to the "Kilo 17".An explosive attack on a Customs officer triggers a dangerous change in the Liverpool drugs war, and is the start of a new assignment for Harry Ferguson. Leaving behind the Kilos, he joins the Lima team, the 'All-stars' of Customs Investigation Division, and starts with the dealings of John Haase, who runs a heroin network supplied by a Turk named Volkan. But Volkan also supplies an equally ruthless gang in Brixton and the Limas become dangerously stretched trying to keep a grip on the spiralling case in two cities plus the ever-present threat of an attack on the officers themselves. This dramatic true story of an undercover operation has shocks, surprises and an extraordinary twist.

'Punctuated by sudden car chases, and the danger of getting "toasty" or "burned" by the criminals, the tale moves fast and has that rare ring - authenticity - so often lacking from other spy tales. It really did happen' Daily Express
