Description
Perdue seems to know the spy set intimately and things all work out in one of those bone-crunching, cartilage popping climaxes that the genre does so well. Los Angeles TimesLibya, 1982. Muammar Qaddafi's top hitman, Mustapha Salem El-Nouty, is ordered to commit two assassinations that will destroy the global balance of power. But Qaddafi is just a deranged puppet, his strings pulled by a massive conspiracy born in the labyrinthine bowels of the Politburo...and the marble chambers of a seditious U.S. Government official. And rushing headlong against this vast consortium of treason is an improbable couple: Wounded CIA operative Nat Worthington and Tania Valente, a defecting Soviet ballerina. Together they hurtle toward the hour of ultimate international reckoning.Praise for Lewis PerdueFor readers who want a thriller that's gripping and entertaining.
