Book description
Samuel Carver makes bad accidents happen to worse people. He's very
good at his job. But nobody's perfect. And one of Carver's targets has
got away.
Now the world faces a new age of conflict driven by religious
fanaticism. In Russia, the government have admitted they no longer
know the whereabouts of one hundred small-scale 'suitcase nukes'. In
Afghanistan and Kosovo, ruthless terrorists plot the downfall of their
hated enemies. In Texas, a dying billionaire plots his own personal Armageddon.
And Carver can do nothing to stop them. He was beaten and tortured
and left to die, but Samuel Carver is a hard man to kill. When he
awakes in a Swiss sanatorium from weeks of torment, he discovers that
the woman he loves has vanished. Somehow he must find the strength to
track her down.
Carver's hunt will take him deep into the heart of a conspiracy in
which the lives of millions are at stake. He must confront an
agonizing choice between his duty and his heart, and face the ultimate
sacrifice. As the clock ticks down to doomsday, who will survive the
final, explosive conflagration?
In The Survivor the worlds of fact and fiction collide in a
thriller that grips from the first page to the last.
