Book Synopsis‘SUPERB… COLIN FORBES HAS NO EQUAL AT THIS SORT OF THING’ SUNDAY MIRROR A terrible secret lurks within an exclusive Swiss Clinic… When news reporter Bob Newman gets a tip-off about a mysterious package smuggled across an eastern border, it’s yet another link in a chain of sinister incidents that have one thing in common – they are all connected with the Berne Clinic and something called Terminal. But what is Terminal? And why is Tweed of the British Secret Intelligence Service so desperate to find out? An ex-CIA hitman arrives in Switzerland and the mystery of the Berne Clinic deepens. Why is it surrounded by barbed wire and guarded by Dobermans and the Swiss Army? And why do the people who can answer these questions keep getting murdered? Tweed and Newman will not rest until they know exactly what is happening. And together they make a formidable force… Terminal – the second in the Tweed & Co series of thrillers – has all the hallmarks of Colin Forbes’s terrifying and brilliant novels – the surprises and twists, the violence and the tension – and it is one of his very best.
