<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Hagberg's explosive thriller, now in a tall Premium Edition, pits Kirk McGarvey against Kim Jong-Il. David Hagberg is "the" grand master of the contemporary espionage thriller.--"New York Times"-bestselling author Douglas Preston.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Late one balmy summer evening in Pyongyang, an important Chinese intelligence general on his way to a secret meeting with Kim Jon-Il is assassinated in plain sight of a surveillance camera. The two shooters are wearing the uniforms of North Korean police officers. <p/>Kim Jong-Il denies any knowledge of the shooting, but the Chinese do not believe him. As they prepare to attack, Jong-Il promises to unleash his nuclear weapons on downtown Beijing, Seoul, and Tokyo, plunging the entire region into nuclear war. <p/>Kirk McGarvey, just off a difficult assignment that took him to Mexico City, has returned to his visiting professorship at the University of South Florida. A colonel in North Korea's intelligence service shows up in person, asking McGarvey to prove that North Korea did not authorize the hit. <p/>It's the most extraordinary request McGarvey has ever received. He enters a dangerous international shadow world where almost nothing is as it seems. The puzzles lead him to a mysterious Russian ex-KGB multimillionaire whose specialty is expediting assassins for hire, to Pyongyang where he finds the wedge to open up a far-reaching plot so monstrous the entire world could go up into flames, and finally back to the one nation that potentially has the most to gain by such a war. <p/>And the most to lose . . .</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"An espionage tale of deep intrigue, puzzles wrapped in enigmas, triple crosses, and brutal murders . . .
