Testament

Shaun Hutson has been one of the UK's leading horror writers for 40 years. This audiobook, released in June 2020, narrated by Andy Stevenson, contains over 50 different character voices. Content warning: there is strong language throughout and some scenes of violence and sexual violence.

Sean Doyle faced danger, death, and other things he'd rather forget during his time in the Counter Terrorist Unit. But times change, even if Doyle doesn't. He's older, but no wiser, and the world he knew has changed.

Now, he finds himself working as a private security consultant in Baghdad, still a city in turmoil. His job is to protect the men working on a new rail line from terrorist attacks. For Doyle, it seems like old times, but this time, it's a different kind of enemy. However, someone from his past arrives to offer him the kind of work he was made for. Doyle is given the chance to rejoin the Counter Terrorist Unit.

The lure of his old life is too much, but when he returns, he discovers there are some catches. After physical and psychological tests, he will have to work with a partner. A man half his age, who seems to embody everything Doyle despises. Between them, these two will have to hunt down a man who Doyle thought was dead. A man with limitless wealth, twisted desires, and the mind of a monster. The man responsible for the death of the only woman Doyle ever loved. It's meant to be a mission, but for Doyle, it's what he does best. It's revenge.

However, when the time comes, he will find answers that threaten not only his life, but his sanity. His old, blood-spattered world will come hurtling back to engulf him, and a decision must be made that defies reason.

Sean Doyle is back, but might wish he wasn't...
