About the Book

The dark side of espionage . . . Joe Johnson's investigation into a horrific wartime killing on an iconic bridge is thrown off track by his former CIA boss, who once hired him, then later fired him. Now, decades later, he's trying to kill him. ★★★★★ "A great book written by a very, very talented author." - Amazon reviewer. Former spy Johnson's war crimes inquiry begins in some of Europe's most beautiful locations, but takes on a new dimension when it uncovers high level corruption within the Agency-his old employer. It culminates in an electrifying hunt for a killer in New York City and London. Johnson and his ex-MI6 colleague Jayne Robinson literally walk a minefield while searching for an army officer who vanished after the Yugoslav civil war with a secret dossier linked to the White House. The search takes them to Mostar and Dubrovnik. They end up fending off powerful intelligence agency leaders with vested interests. The Old Bridge is the second taut thriller in the Joe Johnson series. See how Johnson draws on all his resources to uncover the truth about what happened several decades earlier, while battling against dark forces that are working against him. THIS HARDCOVER HAS A LAMINATED COVER AND A JACKET.

Review :
AMAZON REVIEWS SELECTION: This was another stellar outing from Turpin and his war crimes investigator Joe Johnson. Meticulously researched, it sings with realism. This time Johnson is inveigled into researching a war crime resulting from the atrocities that occurred in the 1990s Yugoslavian civil war. Once more, the now retiring MI6 agent and friend, Jayne Robinson leaps into the fray alongside Johnson. I'd not wish to cross her, she's an impressively adept individual whether she happens to be looking for information from prior contacts or flinging dangerous ordnance around. Together they make an inspiring pair. This was an intriguing, action-packed, adrenaline fuelled, highly plausible scenario and a book quite impossible to put down once opened. As outstanding as the first book of this series, The Last Nazi, and if you haven't yet read either, you definitely should! Thought-Provoking and Entertaining. A very exciting thriller with a firm historical base. The writing captures the look and feel of Croatia and the disasters that followed the breakup of Yugoslavia. Everything about the story is five star except the dialogue which comes across as a little stilted. Certainly the level of realism is very good in all other aspects. The suspense continues to increase as the story continues. Near misses keep Joe Johnson on edge, and the outcome is uncertain right up to the very end. To me the book clearly shows the terrible impact of religious extremism, as two major religions claiming to be peaceful produce war, torture and massacres with tendrils extending right up to the present day. What a brilliant story. A worthy 2nd book in the Joe Johnston series. I was totally captivated again and was interested to read the blog at the end of the book detailing the real life facts in the Bosnia / Croatian conflict. I had no idea all this went on when Yugoslavia was split up. This was a thriller of the highest quality based on real life events. I felt I was sharing the exciting journey with Joe in his search for truth in war crimes committed in this area. Follow a war crimes investigator through a literal mine field to bring a Bosnian war criminal to justice. It is an exciting thriller centered around a 450 year old bridge in Bosnia and the war that destroyed it. Joe Johnson is war crimes investigator who takes on an investigation that leads him to a Bosnian war criminal. Traversing a minefield to get evidence into the sectarian hatred that destroyed lives, cities and the old bridge, the story leads the reader on a thrilling adventure. A good read that I would recommend.
