Never Hardback (Ken Follett)

The Sunday Times Thriller of the Month   'Stunning . . . one of the most compelling reads of the year' – Daily Express   Expertly researched and visionary in scale, international number one bestseller Ken Follett’s Never is more than a thriller. It imagines a scenario we all hope never comes true, one which will keep you transfixed until the final page . . .  A stolen US army drone. A shrinking oasis in the Sahara Desert. A secret stash of deadly chemicals.  Each is a threat to the stability of the world but individually are problems that can be overcome. In the diplomatic arena though, everyone will have a different way of dealing with such a threat. And when those in charge disagree and refuse to back down, it will kick off an international chain reaction with potentially catastrophic consequences: a world edging closer to war . . . Now three people must work tirelessly and with the utmost skill to stop that from happening:  A spy working undercover with jihadists. A brilliant Chinese spymaster. A US president beleaguered by a populist rival for the next election.  The only question is, in a game of brinksmanship can the inevitable ever be stopped?  'Bold in scale and meticulously researched'  –  Sunday Times   'A compelling story, and only too realistic' – Lawrence H.
