Book description
It's one of the most dangerous and volatile countries in the world:
Yemen. A Middle Eastern hotbed of corruption and insurgency and the
perfect training ground for Islamic terrorists.
When FBI agents John Corey and Kate Mayfield are assigned to overseas
posts in Sana'a, Yemen's capital city, they are tasked with hunting down
a high-ranking Al Qaeda operative. This man, known as The Panther, is
wanted for terrorist acts and multiple murders and the US government is
determined to bring him down, no matter the cost.
As latecomers to a deadly game, John and Kate don't know the rules, the
players or the score. What they do know is that there is more to their
assignment than meets the eye - and that the hunters are about to become
the hunted.
In an action-packed and terrifying race to take down one of the most
ruthless men alive, Nelson DeMille reunites readers with his
charismatic hero John Corey.
DeMille's strengths are legend. His characters are rounded and
appealing... His writing is fluid and accessible and his plots are
tremendous. Sun Corey: a wise-ass with a splendid line in sarcasm, even
in the most violent of circumstances. The Times Written with a neat wry
humour, it's full-on and fast-paced. Daily Mail Nelson DeMille is one
of America's most popular and bestselling authors, and a new book from
him is a keenly awaited event. A former US Army lieutenant who served in
Vietnam, he lives in Long Island, New York.
