Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Egleton's heroic Peter Ashton returns in the newest of a successful series (e.g., Lethal Involvement, LJ 7/96) as the special agent asked to help stop a terrorist organization from carrying out an explosive attack on the United States. One bomb has already gone off in Berlin, in turn setting off an international game of hide-and-seek with Ashton and fellow agents, who are attempting to find the mastermind of a fundamentalist Islamic group determined to make its point to the world at all costs. Egleton cleverly leads the reader on a trip across the world, describing streets and landmarks in Russia and Germany with pinpoint accuracy and always keeping the diabolical terrorists one step ahead of Ashton and the reader. The description at times gets heavy, but overall the pace of the plot is quick, and the reader will enjoy having "security clearance" into the secret world of government intelligence. Recommended for all public libraries, especially those that collect espionage fiction.?Stacey Reasor, ITT Technical Inst. Lib., Tampa, Fla.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Post cold war British spy thriller,
By Pete Peterson (pete@wordplace.com) (Orem, Utah) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Warning Shot (Hardcover)
I purchased this book by mistake while in London, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Hero Peter Ashton has to stop the terrorists without taking the kinds of risks that might worry his wife. Reminded me of a LeCarre novel, although a little less intense. I will look for another book by the same author.
