New York Times Bestseller The new must-read epic from master
storyteller Ken Follett: more than a thriller, it's an
action-packed, globe-spanning drama set in the present day. "A
compelling story, and only too realistic." -Lawrence H. Summers,
former U.S. Treasury Secretary "Every catastrophe begins with a
little problem that doesn't get fixed." So says Pauline Green,
president of the United States, in Follett's nerve-racking drama of
international tension. A shrinking oasis in the Sahara Desert; a
stolen US Army drone; an uninhabited Japanese island; and one
country's secret stash of deadly chemical poisons: all these play
roles in a relentlessly escalating crisis. Struggling to prevent
the outbreak of world war are a young woman intelligence officer; a
spy working undercover with jihadists; a brilliant Chinese
spymaster; and Pauline herself, beleaguered by a populist rival for
the next president election. Never is an extraordinary novel, full
of heroines and villains, false prophets and elite warriors, jaded
politicians and opportunistic revolutionaries. It brims with
cautionary wisdom for our times, and delivers a visceral,
heart-pounding read that transports readers to the brink of the
unimaginable.
