THE SECRET THAT WILL SHAKE THE WORLD
Liv Adamsen is a New York crime reporter, Kathryn Mann a charity
worker. They are very different people, but their fate is bound together
by one man's desperate act.
With the world's media watching, a robed man has thrown himself from
the top of the oldest inhabited place on earth, an ancient citadel in
Turkey. For some it is a sign of great events to come. For Liv and
Kathryn it is the start of a race into danger, darkness and the most
remarkable secret in the history of humanity.
It is a secret that the fanatical monks in the citadel will kill,
torture and break every law, human and divine, to keep hidden… 'A fast
moving, thoroughly enjoyable, adventure - plenty of action, plenty of
intrigue and a wonderfully imaginative reinterpretation of a slice of
religious history. The sort of novel to devour in one sitting' KATE MOSSE
'A cool, confident debut … A talented new writer who instinctively
grasps the broad rules of superior action thrillers and adapts them with
pace, grace, humour and a keen eye for cinematic effect' DAILY TELEGRAPH
'In this thriller Toyne creates an intriguing and engaging centrepiece
in The Citadel … Relentless pace … An exciting and interesting read. I
look forward to returning to Ruin, where there are plenty of stories
waiting to be told' THE SUN
