Présentation de l'éditeur :
1946. A plane crashes in the deserts of North Africa.
Fourteen-year-old Billy Sterling regains consciousness to find himself alone among the wreckage.
He soon finds the body of the pilot, a celebrated war hero, and on it a cryptic map, more like a pirate’s treasure map than a serious navigational tool.
But there is no sign of the plane’s co-pilot.
Billy is confident someone will come for him.
Someone does, but not anyone he expects...
Seven years later, a mysterious stranger contacts Billy’s grieving father, George Bridger Sterling, claiming to be the lost co-pilot.
Only a few hours later, this sinister informant is found brutally murdered.
Armed with the information that Billy’s plane did not go down where he was told it had, Sterling sets out to discover the truth.
Why did the plane take a different route?
And why was Billy on board at all?
Along with an eccentric private investigator, Eric Churchill, Sterling travels into the vast and dangerous desert, forced to rely on strangers for his own survival.
But he is not the only one still looking for Billy after all these years...
'Sandstorm' is a fast-paced and evocative thriller, full of adventure and betrayal.
Praise for the author:
