The second race-against-time thriller from the author of ROTTEN
GODS, in the tradition of le Carre, Ludlum and Clancy. Intelligence
officer Marika Hartmann captures an extremist foot-soldier guilty
of a massacre of school children and aid workers in Southern
Somalia. Renditioned to a CIA 'black site' in Djibouti, the
prisoner hints at a terror plot in the making. Marika and
ex-Special Forces colleague PJ Johnson team up to investigate,
uncovering a cold-blooded conspiracy that will decimate the cities
of the West. From the refugee camps of East Africa to the azure
waters off the Iranian coast, the marshes of Iraq to Syria's
parched eastern desert, Savage Tide is a manhunt, a quest for
truth, and a desperate search for the legacy of a cruel regime bent
on dominating the world. Greg Barron is a world traveller who has
studied International Terrorism at the prestigious St Andrew's
University. His critically acclaimed thrillers reflect his
fascination with political, social and environmental change. Praise
for Greg Barron's novels: 'A superlative political thriller' Rob
Minshull, ABC 'A high-octane thriller ...the pace is excellent, the
writing is sharp and Barron has a real talent for the evocation of
place . ..sufficiently gripping to keep you up at night' The
Australian 'Barron is not one to pull his punches' Courier-Mail
'Barron echoes the work of authors such as MacLean, Clancy and
Ludlum' Canberra Times 'Supremely intelligent and written at
breathtaking pace, Savage Tide combines the very best of a thriller
by Tom Clancy with the Boys Own action blockbuster of someone like
Chris Ryan. The speed of the action is matched only by the
sophistication of the prose and the originality of the plot. Greg
Barron has proved he is a political thriller writer at the very top
of his game.' ABC Weekend Bookworm
