Sean Dillon, ex-IRA operative now employed by Brigadier Ferguson in the British government. Now his enemy is Kate Rashid, the only surviving sister from a previous adventure (Edge of Danger), where he killed Paul Rashid and his brothers.

When his father was shot in the crossfire between the IRA and a british paratrooper regiment, he joined the glorious cause. While flying medical supplies into Bosnia he is captured and saved in the nick of time by Brigadier Charles Ferguson. He makes a deal that he will be rescued if he comes to work for British intel. This is one of his many adventures to fight terrorism and become a close friend to such people as Hannah Bernstein, of Scotland Yard; special branch but Ferguson's personal minder too.
