Peace has broken out in Northern Ireland. The Good Friday agreement promises an end to thirty years of violence. Until one afternoon . . . Eamonn Dillon of Sinn Fein is the first to die. Shot by a gunman on the streets of Belfast. Simultaneously in Dublin a bomb leaves the National Library in ruins. And in London a suitcase packed with Semtex explodes and destroys the Underground at Heathrow. It seems that a new terrorist group, the Ulster Volunteer Brigade, wants anything but peace. Head of the CIA Monica Tyler brings in Michael Osbourne, who has a personal stake in the crisis. But what game is Tyler playing - and whose side is she really on? ’The Marching Season’ is a compelling mix of power, intrigue, politics and a touch of romance that shows Daniel Silva at the top of his form.
