Opis

US President Stephen Baker is flying high after signing a popular bill which gives new rights to victims of domestic violence. But when his ruthless political opponent Vic Forbes is found murdered, the conspiracy theorists go into overdrive. Did the President order his killing, or was it the work of those hoping to discredit him?

Recenzje

'Like a much classier Dan Brown ... dazzlingly compelling' Heat

Praise for Sam Bourne:

'The biggest challenger to Dan Brown's crown ... a highly charged, theologically accurate tale' Mirror

'Compulsive reading ... successfully blends ancient teachings with the highly charged ways of the 21st century ... bears all the hallmarks of a blockbuster' Daily Express

'The best thriller I've read in years' Piers Morgan

'More readable than The Da Vinci Code - the sense of menace is darker and the characters more believable' Esquire

'Sharper and vastly more authoritative than Dan Brown' Telegraph

'A gripping read' Guardian

'Immensely diverting ... a pacy read, constructed with a crisp control of tension and narrative drive' Observer
