Captured in an airplane hijacking and imprisoned in the barren Australian desert, the passengers of a 747 out of London are frightened and bewildered; even Gordon Gallagher, with his British Intelligence training, can't guess the terrorists' motives. Keeping his former career a secret, Gallagher meets the man responsible for their capture and discovers his horrifying intent. Alex Harding wants revenge on one man among the passengers who cost his corporation millions, and ruthlessly sacrafices innocent lives as he satisfies his desire in the most chilling way imaginable. Gallagher stops the slaughter when he leads the survivors, including the target of Harding's hatred, on a daring breakout. But their escape is only the beginning of the nightmare...once they are out in the searing heat, the real manhunt begins...

A plane is hijacked and all of the first class passengers are taken hostage. Then they are used as game for the hijackers who are after a special goal and it is not ransom money. It is then left to Gordon Gallacher to lead the escape and then cross the half of Australia to reach safety while being hunted by the Hijackers. It is a good book but I keep on thinking that there should have been a book before this about gordons military career. Still, it would make an excellent film since most of it is set in a desert

James Bond just met his match,Gordon Gallagher is tougher and smarter. I just could'nt put this book down till I had finished. Read it and be amazed at how Gallagher gets out of impossible situations and gets the girl.
