Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

'A high-class thriller, grounded in reality and as taut as a bowstring' (Daily Telegraph)

'The finest thriller writer in the world today' (Daily Telegraph)

'Don't rush through this well-crafted adventure story; if you do, you'll miss savouring the sheer pleasure of fine writing and an intricate plot so skilfully woven that every development falls believably into place' (The Sunday Times)

'Gerald Seymour writes with great authority, never fails to control his taut but diverse plot, and even manages to make this chilling tale moving' (Punch)

Reseña del editor:

The Beqa'a Valley in east Lebanon is home for many of the most revolutionary groups of the Palestinian guerrilla war against Israel, a dangerous, closed valley to which unauthorised access is virtually impossible, where capture by the Syrian Army results in torture and death.

Holt, a diplomat, and Noah Crane, Israeli master-sniper, mentor and guide, plan to walk by night into the noose of the valley's fortifications to find one man. Holt alone can identify him, the subject of an act of vengeance by the British, who mean to display their strength in the face of terrorism. To Israeli Intelligence it is a mission of suicidal folly. Holt and Crane are far into the Beqa'a, out of reach, unrecoverable, then their cover is blown and Syrian Intelligence alerted to their approach.
