Trade ReviewWhat keeps you reading - absorbed, excited, fearfully tense - is its details of the plotting of the coup * New Statesman *
Enormous and convincing detail, and a shattering climax * Sunday Mirror *
A super thriller . . . as instantly enthralling as
The Day of the Jackal * Publishers Weekly *
There is no doubt about it. Frederick Forsyth can write spellbinders * Bestsellers *
