Narrator - Paul Panting
A compelling espionage thriller that updates the spy novel for the 21st century.
Starting with a plot to blow up the London Marathon, this is an 'edge of the seat'
action thriller in the vein of James Bond and Jason Bourne, with the writing style
of John le Carr involving a complex plot covering terrorism, modern espionage and
torture.
Daniel Marchant, a suspended MI6 officer, is running the London Marathon. He is
also running out of time. A competitor is strapped with explosives: if he drops
his pace, everyone around him will be killed, including the US ambassador to
London. Marchant tries to thwart the attack, but is he secretly working for the
terrorists?
There are those in America who already suspect Marchant of treachery. Just like
they suspected his late father, the former head of MI6. On the run from the CIA,
Marchant is determined to prove his father's innocence in a personal journey that
takes him from Wiltshire, via Poland, to India. It was here that the former MI6
chief once met with one of the world's most wanted terrorists, and where the new
President of America is shortly to visit.
But was that meeting proof of a mole within MI6 or the best penetration of Al
Qaeda the West has ever had? And was Marchant's father the keeper of another,
darker secret?
