In this provocative political thriller an ex-British SAS officer goes up against powerful conspirators who are about to regret they ever met him! Readers call it riveting, thought provoking, can't put the book down reading; a masterpiece of psychological warfare; superior storytelling and liken it to the best ofJohn Le Carré.
Rufus Reed, ex-British Special Forces is kidnapped, falsely accused of terrorism and taken to a secret CIA "Black Site" for questioning. He's not only up against his captors, but dangerous elements at the top levels of government who intend to use him as part of a plan to ensure "their man" wins the Presidency of the United States. Seeking power at all costs, they set in motion a global conspiracy of unthinkable proportions.
Yet nothing is quite what it seems, and Rufus is no ordinary prisoner.
As he slowly plants seeds of doubt in the minds of his captors, related events explode on the world stage racing with unnerving twists and turns from Hong Kong, Jordan, Italy, Latvia and the USA to the highest levels of the CIA, the Knesset and the Vatican. What's at stake is not just Reed's survival, but that of democracy and freedom as we know it!
And just as you think you know what's going to happen, three powerful figures - a high-profile Iranian Muslim woman, a former Israeli Intelligence Officer, and a Catholic mining billionaire - reveal their true intentions and propel the story to a riveting and unexpected conclusion!
