Timebomb

by Gerald Seymour
$9.90
Timebomb
Timebomb

Espionage thriller with buried Cold War secrets.

"Timebomb" might just be the gripping narrative you're after if you're interested in the intricate world of spy games and international politics. Gerald Seymour has a way of making the Cold War feel alarmingly current, and his insight into the shadowy corridors of espionage will keep you engrossed. With a storyline that bridges past and present political tensions, this is an excellent pick for lovers of meticulously researched thrillers that don't let up on the tension.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

In 1992, after being fired from a top secret nuclear facility, a top KGB man buried a nuclear suitcase. Sixteen years later he has found a buyer for it. An exchange point in Eastern Europe is agreed upon. Travelling with the buyer is an undercover policeman, working for M16. But as their shadowy journey across Europe begins, it becomes clear to a top psychiatrist at M16 that their man may be suffering from Stockholm Syndrome and the whole operation is very likely to be thrown into jeopardy.
