À propos de cet audio

Discover the lost classic from iconic number one best-selling author of A Song for The Dark Times

The bigger the lie, the harder the truth is to believe...

In Europe, the Americans are pulling out their troops in a tide of isolationism.

Britain, torn between loyalties to America and the continent, is caught betwixt and between.

In America, a space shuttle crashes on landing, killing all but one of the crew on-board: A British man named Mike Dreyfuss, who will become vilified by the US press and protesters.

Halfway across the world, Martin Hepton, an English ground control technician watches as they lose contact with the most advanced satellite in Europe. A colleague of Hepton's who suspects something strange is going on is signed off sick, and never comes back.

Hepton decides to investigate his friend's suspicions and his trail leads him to Dreyfuss, the MI6, the American military, and back to his former girlfriend, Jill, who is an up-and-coming journalist with the contacts and the courage to cover the story.

But there is much more at stake than anyone realises - and many more people on their trail than they can possibly evade....

Complete break made before the Rebus series

It is interesting hearing Rankin in his early stages of mastering the art of writing. The tale is well told but with less grittiness than expected for a novel of spies and power struggles, but there is grit to be sure. Although originally written several decades ago, the plot is not out of place as bits and pieces remind one of that time. Technology wedded with political ambition and the struggle for control of the forces of the western world seems plausible in today's world of megalomania and drones sent on extinction missions.
Not profound but good entertainment.
