Description
August 2001, Zara Scott, the British Secret Intelligence Service (MI6) Al Qaeda Analyst stationed in Pakistan, returns to London with credible intelligence on several British-Born radicalised Islamic Jihad terrorist suspects believed to have trained in Afghanistan at Osama Bin Laden's camp. Zara believes they have returned to the United Kingdom to mount a large scale terrorist attack on London. With MI5 and the Metropolitan Police's Anti-Terrorism SO13 unit refusing to act on her intelligence, Zara turns to Major Tom, OC of SAS Bravo Squadron for help.
Archer's Bravo Seven Troop is on rotation with the Counter Revolutionary Wing as part of the SAS Counter-Terrorism watch at Regents Park Barracks when they become involved in an unsanctioned operation to perform a hard arrest on the four suspects to prevent the attack.
When Zara uncovers evidence of an unidentified second cell operating in London, the patrol undertakes a clandestine operation to defeat the expected suicide bombing attack at one of London's biggest tourist Landmarks on a busy Bank Holiday Monday.
The Blades: SAS Special Operations Force series follows Archer's Seven Troop through 6 novella length stories as he carries out a range of operations during 1998 to the eve of the 9/11 attacks in 2001.
