Description
Another Paul Cane thriller with surprises in every chapter.
In this story, which is a sequel to The Millennium Secret, Paul Cane is the only survivor from a plane that is blown up by a terrorist bomb over the estuary of the river Thames. Al-Qaeda is suspected of being responsible but intelligence reports received by the CIA and MI6 after the event indicate that a Russian terrorist group could be to blame. After recovering from his injuries, Cane vows retribution for the death of his wife and the other aircraft passengers. The covert search by MI6 and the US Counter Terrorist Unit for those responsible uncovers a web of criminal and political conspiracy which lead to murder and further acts of terrorism. It also reveals an al-Qaeda plan which eventually results in terrorists high-jacking planes and flying them into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Centre in New York and the Pentagon in Washington on 11 September 2001.
Who is really behind the London plane bomb?
Why does the Head of MI6 take a personal interest in the search?
Why has the FBI not arrested suspected al-Qaeda terrorists?
What secrets do the US President and British Prime Minister share?
Retribution, murder, intrigue, assassination and political conspiracy, all underpin this exciting page-turning thriller that takes the reader up to and beyond 9/11.
