Pr�sentation de l'�diteur :

A top secret FBI file is missing. Code named "Prodigy", the file was the genius of J. Edgar Hoover, who created it to use against hispotential enemies--which included everyone in Washington from JFK to this year's presidential candidate, Jack Hallorin. The unluckygrad student who uncovered it is dead, and now his girlfriend is on the run, accused of murder.

Mark Beamon--the only man everyone agrees can find the young woman and the explosive document--has been suspended by the FBIand is fighting a legal battle to keep himself out of jail. He knows better than anyone that this case is his last shot to save his career--and his country.

Tracking her down will be the most demanding case Beamon's ever faced, for the young woman is a world-class rock-climber who candrop out of sight anywhere in the world. But even if he does find her and the file, who can he trust when the FBI itself is undersuspicion?

Free Fall is a nonstop adventure that moves from the frozen mountaintops of Wyoming to the jungles of Thailand. Mark Beamon is playing for the highest stakes this time. If her blows this one, his career is over--and his prison term begins...

Quatri�me de couverture :

It's bold. It's dangerous. It's the kind of maverick operation that has made Mark Beamon both the FBI's best agent and its least-likely-to-succeed screw-up.

A top-secret FBI file -- buried in an anonymous government warehouse since J. Edgar Hoover's death -- is missing. The unlucky grad student who uncovered it is dead, and now his ex-girlfriend is on the run, accused of the murder. The only man everyone agrees can find the young woman and turn up the explosive document is "off-duty," suspended and under the threat of prosecution by the bureau itself.

Beamon knows better than anyone that this is his last shot to save his career -- and his country. Tracking the young woman down, though, will be the hardest assignment he's ever tackled, for she's a gutsy world-class rock-climber who can drop out of sight anywhere in the world. And even if he finds her and the file, who can he trust when the FBI itself is under suspicion? Beamon has no room for wrong guesses -- or moves. If he blows this one, he'll free fall straight out of the bureau -- and straight into prison....
