A propos de cet article

Glued binding. 480 p. From Wikipedia: "David Hagberg (* 9. October 1942 in Duluth, Minnesota) is an American novelist best known for his techno-thrillers featuring super-spy Kirk McGarvey. Hagberg has also written under the pseudonym Sean Flannery, Nick Carter, David Bannerman, David James, Robert Pell, and Eric Ramsey. Hagberg's style has been described as a cross between Tom Clancy and Ian Fleming. His thrillers generally feature a combination of technical detail, timely plots and super-spy heroics that are sometimes almost prophetic in their accuracy. In Joshua's Hammer, written in 2000, Hagberg gives a chilling account of a mega-terrorist plot by Osama bin Laden to kill thousands of Americans on their home soil, published a year before the World Trade Center Attacks. His scenario of McGarvey tracking bin Laden to his urban lair in Pakistan and shooting him in the head was described and executed in Allah s Scorpion (2007) four years before the eerily similar event echoed Hagberg's novel." Good. Ink note on first page after cover. Cover has slight wear and soiling. Slightly cocked. First mass marker paperback ed. [stated]. First ptg [stated].

Synopsis

The Cold War is over, followed by a deadlier menace than the world has ever known. Its codename is Operation Homeward Bound. To ensure its mission, a sinister coterie deep within the KGB will use every weapon available - torture, murder, even the family of a US security advisor.
