About this listen

The twentieth century is drawing to a close and the Russians are up to all sorts of dirty tricks in Lithuania and Kaliningrad. MI6 decide to fight fire with fire and send in a crack SAS team led by Dan 'Spider' Shepherd. Their mission - to create chaos in the Baltic region through sabotage, assassination and black ops. But the Russians aren't going to give up without a fight, and soon the SAS team wonder if they might have bitten off more than they can chew.

Every book I have read (listened to) of Stephen Leathers I loved (not read any short stories) I have loved. Spider Shepherd is awesome. But I was kinda disappointed, there was no Major Gannon or Liam or back story of spider in the uk, flying here there and everywhere. It was like he had a bit part in this book to a certain degree.

That certainly won’t stop me buying any more books by Mr Leather

Narration is once again top notch.

Baltic black Ops left me kinda let down

Loved this book. It's a great story with great characters. The banter between the soldiers is very amusing, particularly between Jock and Geordie. Any fan of Stephen Leather and Spider Shepard should enjoy this book emmensly.

More of this, please

Another great Spider Sheppard book, but as usual, there are some script, factual and mussreading errors, however these do not detract from the overal appeal of the story

needs a better editor

Up there with the best of the Spider novels. Probably one of the best in the SAS series.

Top notch yet again

Good story and even better story telling,keep this series coming.When’s the next one coming ??

Another great Spider Shepherd story

Yet another brilliant and intense story, expertly narrated.
I love these peaks into Spider's former life, and seeing how they inform his current persona. I also love the sheer amount of information that's woven into the storyline. If I'd been asked to read these books at school instead of attending the dreary history lessons we were given, I'd have learned so much more!
Thanks Stephen!
