"'Scotland's very own Michael Crichton' Aberdeen Evening Express 'Well-wrought, plausible and unnerving' The Times"

Product Description

Ex-Special Forces Medic, Dr Steven Dunbar of the Sci-Med Inspectorate, is asked to investigate the suspicious death of an English university lecturer. Sci-Med's concern is that the man once worked at Porton Down, the UK's Defence Research establishment and there is a fear that there might be a link. Steven is drawn into a web of deceit, intrigue and cover-up at the highest government level leading to his becoming entangled in the controversy surrounding Gulf War Syndrome and the true origin of the disease.

This title was first published by Allison & Busby in the UK in 2004. It is the fourth Dr Steven Dunbar thriller.

Ken McClure is the internationally bestselling author of over twenty medical thrillers such as The Lazarus Strain, Past Lives, White Death and Dust to Dust. His books have been translated into twenty-five languages and he has earned a reputation for the accuracy of his predicitions. McClure's work is informed by his background as an award-winning research scientist with the UK's Medical Research Council.

I was lucky I was on vacation, because I got this book Wednesday and just couldn't put it down. The Gulf Conspiracy is just one of those books that you dont know what bit is true and what's fiction. I know some guys that were in the Gulf and I've heard some interesting stories from them. I've read some other books by the author Ken McClure : Wildcard, etc and this character in the books, Steven Dunbar, is some sort of scientific ex-Special Forces action hero like Jack Ryan/ James Bond. He doesn't hang about.

A gripping medical thriller which I guess is the best book I've read for a long long time. Highly recommended, even if you're not on vacation !

I`ve read all of Ken McClure`s books, and this is my favourite. Its a slight departure from his usual medical thrillers, as it combines the medical background with political conspiracy, and does this very effectively. It features Dr Steven Dunbar, who has appeared in some of McClure`s previous works. His investigation leads him to the death of a scientist involved in developing a vaccine used on British troops prior to the Gulf War, and also a Gulf veteran, claiming the vaccine has left him with a "Gulf War Syndrome". Dr Dunbar tries to get to the truth of what really went into that vaccine, and why people are prepared to kill to keep it secret.

Although, as with all McClure books, this does have a strong medical background, his easy style of writing ensures that this isn`t overwhelming, and the story flows along nicely. I thoroughly enjoyed this book from begining to end.

The Gulf Conspiracy 5 Aug 2004
Format:Paperback
This was the first Ken McClure novel I have read, and I have to record how good a read it was. The subject of Gulf Syndrome is very topical, and the storyline is very believable. It was very difficult separating what is fact, from what is fiction. The last fifty or sixty pages of the book were great, and I could not put the book down till I had finished it. Should be made into a mini series/ TV film. Well worth a read.
