À propos de cet audio
"A winner." (Publishers Weekly)
"Fiendishly clever." (The Times)
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 trust only one person: Li's fiancée, 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.
©2003 Peter May (P)2019 Hachette AudioCe que les critiques en disent
"A fluid plot, rounded characters, and deft handling of two very different cultures make this a winner." (Publishers Weekly)
"The most exciting thriller I've read in a very long time... A fiendishly clever plot!"
(Alanna Knight, The Times)
"An absorbing and well-informed account of Beijing life today and the inside workings of the Chinese police... Far from a dim sum, this fare turns out quite piquant." (Russell James, Crime Time Magazine)
