Product Description
Synopsis
A high-pressured thriller in which a maverick mining engineer called Stone becomes, much against his will, the only person capable of stopping a frighteningly credible attempt to destroy the Channel Tunnel. By the author of "The Shell Game".
From the Back Cover
Stone is the kind of man who can let his principles get him into trouble and right now he is heading for the biggest trouble of his life. Following various disputes with the US government, he is only too happy to accept the offer of a job in Europe using his expertise as a tunnelling engineer to help evaluate any potential terrorist threat to the Channel Tunnel.
But it turns out to be no theoretical exercise. Stone is walking into an actual plot to destroy the gigantic project, a scheme of terrifying brilliance masterminded with utter ruthlessness.
Hunted across Europe and the open sea by terrorists and police authorities alike, Stone is locked into a desperate game with all the odds stacked against him. Packed with detail, excitement, wit and a wealth of characters, 'Cormorant' is a breathtaking novel that races to a climax of unbearable suspense.
