The English use this to further their own ends, and while one king is tempted by an offer he cannot resist, the others wage war over long-forgotten feuds.Gruffydd Ap Cynan, true heir to the kingdom of Gwynedd, is in exile across the sea. When he hears of the betrayal of the Welsh people by the imposter in his throne, Gruffydd unites with Tewdwr, a monarch deposed by the traitors, and they forge an army from the ashes of their kingdoms. But Tewdwr’s wife and daughter—the source of much of the allies’ strength—are a weakness their enemies will exploit.Betrayal, treachery, and war await, but both men know they must fight to the bitter end, when the sundered lands of Wales are drenched…in the blood of kings.

Previously published as Hard Rain and Blood from BloodAll John Rain wants is to get out of the killing business. But with his discretion, his reliability, and his unique talent for death by "natural causes," no one is willing to let him just retire. So when an old nemesis from the Japanese national police force comes to him with a new job—eliminate Murakami, a killer even more fearsome than Rain himself—Rain knows he can''t refuse.Aided by an achingly desirable half Brazilian, half Japanese exotic dancer he knows he shouldn''t trust, Rain pursues his quarry through underground no-holds-barred fight clubs, mobbed-up hostess bars, and finally into the heart of a shadow war between the CIA and the yakuza. It''s a war Rain can''t win, but also one he can''t afford to lose—a war where the distinctions between friend and foe and truth and deceit are as murky as the rain-slicked streets of Tokyo."…a superlative job…entertaining and suspenseful enough to keep you turning the pages as fast as your eyes can follow." —Chicago Sun Times

When black-ops asset Nathan Stone took out the heads of the Commission, a secret deep-state organization, he thought he'd destroyed them for good. Now he's gone off the grid, trying to get as far away from his past as possible. But the Commission isn't done with him yet. Lying low in a Miami bar, Stone knows something's up when an alluring actress strikes up a conversation with him. His suspicions are correct. The Commission is hot on his trail, and Stone is soon forced to run deep into the heart of the Everglades with the terrified woman as his hostage. He's the Commission's number one target-and this time nothing will stop them from eliminating him. But Nathan Stone is no ordinary target. The crew of mercenary assassins on his heels have no idea what's in store for them on the River of Grass. Because the hunt is on, and they picked the wrong prey.

"Nathan Stone was killed in action while serving as a covert CIA operative--or so everyone thought. In reality he's become a ghost, a black-ops asset with a new identity and controlled by a secret government organisation. The Commission has one aim: to hunt down and assassinate anti-establishment enemies of the state. Its number-one target is Senator Brad Crichton, an ambitious politician with growing support"--Back cover.
