具体描述

Brilliant in its story telling and prophetic in its predic-

tions, The Last Raven a dazzling novel of suspense

and a chilling cautionary tale-confirms Craig Thomas

place in the front-rank of top-selling international

authors.

Inside the Russian border with Afghanistan, the

wrecked fuselage of a military transport plane lies

half-submerged in a lake. Everyone on board is dead

the crew burned and all identification lost. Patrick

Hyde, Sir Kenneth Aubrey s top intelligence operative,

witnesses this eerie scene, and discovers, to his horror,

the identity of one of the bodies. The crash is no

accident. Instead, it s an expertly planned shootdown.

The time is the present-when the hunger for democ-

racy makes world peace a viable possibility at last. But

there are those-in America, Russia, and Great Britain

-who have everything to lose if peace prevails. Their

methods are as violent as their aims, and human life

and love have no meaning for them.

The Last Raven a tale of political terror and patri-

otism run mad-ranges from the icy mountains of

Tadzhikistan to the inner sanctums of the newly

enlightened Kremlin, from Sausalito jazz joints to

London s most exclusive old-boy clubs, finally to climax

in a fierce and deadly confrontation on the shores of

California s beautiful Lake Shasta.
