At the same time, as he is renovating his new house, formerly owned by a Major in British Intelligence, he discovers top secret files that reveal Daniel Riordan as being the notorious Raven, the most feared paramilitary enforcer during the 'Troubles' in Ireland.At the same time, Daniel Riordan makes a bold decision and decides to attend a birthday party in the UK for a former boyhood friend whom he has not seen since he left. Prior to the party he has an opportunity to visit the grave of his uncle, the man who raised him after his parents were killed and trained him to become the fearsome Raven. The party turns out to be a shambles, but shortly afterward Riordan is blackmailed by DeLisle to track down his former employee and retrieve his money.Desperate to protect his family, the hunt takes Riordan from the back streets of London to the quays of Dublin, where he meets an old foe, and from there to the hinterlands of his old stomping grounds in Belfast. He is kidnapped and barely manages to escape with his life. Through a series of clues he discovers the location where he believes Dempsey to be hiding in the wilds of Vancouver Island and eventually tracks down his quarry, but discovers he is not alone. Dempsey's partner turns out to be a former female assassin for the IRA, a 'wild card.' They decided, like Riordan did many years ago, to do one last job so they could get away to live in peace. Riordan forces them to return the money, and knows that they should be eliminated as a possible future threat. When he discovers the woman is pregnant he decides to give them a reprieve.He returns to London to hand over the funds, realizing that DeLisle will probably try to get rid of him and so makes preparations to escape. A former friend and mentor in MI5 who has been guiding him through the maze of logistics turns out to be working for DeLisle and attempts to kill Riordan. Fortunately, Featherstone intervenes, allowing Riordan to go after DeLisle. They meet in a brutal showdown late at night on the river Thames docks. DeLisle has the upper hand, as Riordan is injured, but like gladiators of old, there is no mercy. There can only be one victor.
