Synopsis
On leave for two weeks from The Middle East, Gareth Jones decides to drag his friend Cory Travis to Cardiff, Wales for the rugby World Cup finals. Soon after their arrival, Gareth is killed in what appears to be a car accident. But Cory, a U.S. marine, does not believe that his friend was killed in a simple accident and his suspicions grow stronger when he finally sees the condition of his friend’s body. He is not the only one who is suspicious. Deidra Jones, Gareth’s sister and a police officer, is convinced that MI-5 is trying to hide something.
Determined to find out why Gareth was murdered, Cory starts to ask questions that only get him in trouble with the local authorities. Fortunately for him, Dee does not like MI-5 and although she has no great affection for Cory, she helps to keep him out of jail. The two then embark on an adventure that trails Gareth’s last steps to reveal an imminent terrorist attack.
With the clock ticking, Cory and Dee have to trust each other if they want to make it out alive and stop the attack in time.
Hellfire is an enthralling, action-packed story that will have you turning the pages faster than you can read them. As the story unfolds, and the tension rises, who knows what the real reason behind the attack is and who the intended targets really are . . .
No one is safe.
