Soft Target - Stephen Leather

When a group of armed police in an elite unit turn maverick and start to rip off drug dealers at gunpoint, undercover cop Dan Spider’ Shepherd is given his most dangerous mission so far. His orders are to infiltrate the tight-knit team, to gain their confidence and ultimately to betray them.

Facing men with guns is nothing new for the former SAS trooper, but it’s the first time he’s had to investigate his own. As Shepherd finds himself in the firing line, he has to decide exactly where his loyalties lie.
