“Book Descriptions: In Man on Fire, A. J. Quinnell introduced Creasy, veteran and mercenary. In The Perfect Kill, Creasy returns.
Three days before Christmas in 1988, a bomb blew Pan Am 103 out of the sky over the small Scottish town of Lockerbie, killing all passengers and crew.
The wife and four-year-old daughter of Creasy were amongst the passengers. Seeking his personal vengeance, Creasy finds the backup of power — a US Senator, whose wife also died on Pan Am 103; and of youth — an eighteen-year-old orphan called Michael.
Ruthlessly and relentlessly, Creasy trains Michael into becoming a man in his own image. Trains him ... for the perfect kill.

‘I am completely won over by Quinnell’s imaginative thriller because the writing is so real and true’. PETER MULLEN, DAILY MAIL” DRIVE
