Bullets in the Sand
Description:
Friendship comes at a cost
When Inspector George Zammit, of the Maltese Pulizija, reluctantly agrees to help his old friend, the former Libyan militia leader, Abdullah Belkacem, his quiet life is turned upside down. George is thrown into an adventure in the wilds of North Africa, encountering American special forces, Russian mercenaries and warring militias, all with their own complex agendas.
An old foe
Natasha Bonnici is part of The Family, a sophisticated, organised crime group, based in Milan. Ambitious and ruthless, she sets her sights on a share of Europe's energy market, as well as control of The Family itself and there are no limits to how far she will go.
In the southern Mediterranean, nothing is what it seems
Abdullah Belkacem wants to win back his lands and his money, as well as avenging his brother's death. He cannot do it alone and so turns to powerful forces, dragging George - the only person he can trust - with him.
