À propos de cet audio

 In this heart-stopping installment of Peter May's award-winning China Thrillers, the Beijing Olympics are the setting for fierce competition, national pride -- and murder.

THE SUFFERER
A prodigious Chinese swimmer kills himself on the eve of the Beijing Olympics. Days later, a champion weightlifter suffers a fatal heart attack prior to competition.

THE LISTENER
Detective Li Yan senses a conspiracy surrounding the fatalities, and finds a female athlete willing to talk. But she will only trust one person: Li's fiancee, Margaret Campbell.

THE RUNNER
When Campbell's contact herself vanishes, the gun is fired on a race against time. And Li must now outrun -- and outwit -- an enemy bent on pushing him beyond endurance.
