Sandstealers

Danny Lowenstein is a big shot war correspondent with the world at his feet. But when an interview goes wrong and he's ambushed on a lonely road in Iraq‚ questions are asked. Was it a set-up? And was he deliberately sent to his death by one of his own - the tight-knit group of adrenalin-addicted journalists who are supposed to be his best friends? Rachel‚ Becky‚ Kaps and Edwin are 'The Junkies': together they've been through thick and thin and seen the horrors of war. Yet theirs is also a tangled web of intense relationships and dark rivalries. Could one of them have become Danny's killer?

All's fair in love and war. Including the murder of a friend...

Ben Brown's debut is infused with a deep knowledge of modern war and its reporting‚ but above all‚ it is a triumphant thriller about the heart and where it takes you.
