Book excerpt: Nyles Hawkspurr, former SAS officer living in New Zealand. In July, 1989, he learns that Major Alain Mafart, convicted for the bombing of the Rainbow Warrior, is serving in the French Military Academy. Hawkspurr decides to kidnap Mafart and return him to justice in New Zealand. To gather his old companions, Hawkspurr travels to Hong Kong. He journeys on to Borneo, and spends a hilarious evening in the Iban tribal Longhouse. In Kenya, he and his former sergeant ambush French agents. Cyprus is the home of Hawkspurr's oldest friends who operate a tourist cruiser. He moves through Italy to the Island of Jersey, and discovers that the real leader of the bombing is an old antagonist, Von Harzburg. After a successful kidnap from Paris, the team and their prisoner escape by glider to the cruiser, which transports them to Egypt, after a sneak attack by sea-borne commandos.
