Book description
He was the last hostage, but no one in the outside world even knew
he'd been taken, or by whom. He was last seen in Rome, but his broken
body ended up in Beirut. He had been on a mission so explosive that
only the President of the United States and his personal security
co-ordinator knew of it.
The secret he'd discovered had a price: 150 million dollars, and the
lives of everyone who had tried to claim it.
The Envoy is a book in the tradition of George Brown's other
bestsellers, Ringmain and The Double Tenth: all the
violence of the Middle East is laid bare in a novel that twists and
turns to its shocking end.
George Brown has spent much of his life in South East Asia,
initially fighting terrorists in the jungles of Malaysia before
retiring to run a plantation. He has kept close links with
counter-terrorist colleagues throughout the world, and his books are
consequently filled with the most accurate and up-to-date information
on a hidden war unseen by the public.
His second novel, The Double Tenth, was shortlisted for WH Smith's
Thumping Good Read award. This is his fourth novel. His previous
titles are all available in Arrow paperback.
