Book description
The outlines of two figures were just visible behind a half-open tinted
window. Watching him, waiting. Lachlan Fox went on his way, the back of
his neck prickling with sweat. He was beginning to feel it was the start
of a very long day.' Investigative journalist and ex-navy operative
Lachlan Fox is holidaying with friends in the French countryside. He is
ready for a break. But when the extradition of an infamous criminal goes
horribly wrong, and is somehow tied to the assassination of a Russian
diplomat in Paris, Fox is forced back into action. Over one relentless
day, Fox travels from Paris to Shanghai to unravel a 100-year mystery.
With a price on his head, navigating between the FBI, the CIA and the
French police, who can he trust? Racing against time, Fox is the one man
who can stand in the way of a global catastrophe. An absolute
must-read for fans of Clancy, Ludlum et al.' James Phelan is the
author of five Lachlan Fox thrillers: FOX HUNT, PATRIOT ACT, BLOOD OIL,
LIQUID GOLD and RED ICE. He is also the author of Alone, a dystopian
thriller trilogy for young adults, of which the first book, CHASERS, has
just been published.
