Operation Blue Halo (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780993575013)

Following the success of this first novel, Operation Blue Halo, Richard Joyce has also published this second in the series Operation Last Assault, featuring that novel's hero, Johnny Vince, now retired from UK Special Forces. However, retirement is the last thing Johnny wants, and he accepts a contract as a mercenary. Filled with trouble from the outset, it turns into a race against time to rescue a wealthy American, Larry Schultz, from captivity by Somali pirates. It soon becomes apparent that other groups are also interested in Schultz, making it hard for Johnny to know who to trust, especially when he learns that his brother, Oliver, is being held in ransom for Schultz.

The third in the series is Operation Poppy Pride, publishing in 2020.
