A decades-old plane wreck in Crete leads a British secret agent to a deadly conspiracy in this classic adventure thriller by the author of Manhunt. Off the island of Crete an illicit diver finds a thirty-year-old aircraft on the seabed. He recovers a steel case containing four sealed flasks from amongst the corpses still trapped inside. Within twelve hours he succumbs to a hideous death. Agency trouble-shooter Paul Richter is sent to investigate, and encounters far more questions than answers. Why has the CIA ordered the destruction of the aircraft’s remnants? Why is a hit team roaming the island? Who is targeting members of the hit team itself? And why are retired agents back in America facing professional assassination? As Richter gets ever-closer to unravelling a decades-old secret, even he is unprepared for the sheer horror that awaits. Perfect for fans of Chris Ryan, David Baldacci, and Robert Ludlum.
