FROM THE #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR

‘Deadly conspiracies, bone-crunching action and a tormented hero with a heart . . . packs a real punch’ Andy McDermott

A BRUTAL MURDER.
A SCIENTIST ON THE RUN.
A PLOT TO KILL MILLIONS.

While secretly researching the bizarre discoveries of Serbian scientist Nikola Tesla many years earlier, physicist Claudine Pommier becomes the victim of a remorseless and cruel murderer who breaks into her Parisian apartment. Is he just a serial killer, or is there more to her death than the Paris cops believe?

Maverick American biologist Dr Roberta Ryder receives a mysterious letter from her friend Claudine and travels to Paris to see her, only to learn of her shocking death. Before she knows it, Roberta becomes the target of ruthless men with a deadly agenda that only the letter can unmask. She’s alone and vulnerable. But she knows someone – the only someone – who can help her.

Ben Hope, ex-SAS soldier and Roberta’s old flame, now trying to retire to a life of peace with his fiancée Brooke, suddenly finds his life turned upside down by Roberta’s sudden arrival in England. She needs his help; he can’t turn her down. In a frantic race to Paris and halfway around the world, Ben and Roberta battle to uncover the mystery of Claudine’s research, with the killers just half a step behind. In the process they uncover a global conspiracy that will claim the lives of millions of people . . . unless Ben can stop it.

The Ben Hope series is a must-read for fans of Dan Brown, Lee Child and Mark Dawson. Join the millions of readers who get breathless with anticipation when the countdown to a new Ben Hope thriller begins...

Whilst the Ben Hope thrillers can be read in any order, this is the ninth book in the series.

Ratings and reviews

Usual Ben Hope action adventure where you want to knock his head against something but thats not say it wasnt a very good read as usual. Frightening in the sence this could happen. Only down side were the number of near fatal escapes. Scotts books are as usual a great read and definate page turner. Please please do not do a Lee Child and sell out to hollywood and end up with a hero so unheroic and opposite to our guy that it hurts to see the film poster never mind the film.x

A fast moving story that has you traveling with Ben Hope from country to country to save lives. Their's and anyone that gets in the way of those who are bringing death an destruction to unsuspecting countries. This technology is so close to feeling real. Scarey thought. Thank you Scott Mariani for such a great read.

Good fiction. One or two annoying errors; 100ll avgas in a turboprop equals a wrecked engine, coffee boiled is coffee spoiled, and back a few volumes we had a Citroen 2cv leaking coolant- not easy for an air cooled engine!
