About this title

Synopsis

Deception, blackmail, murder, revenge � these are the themes of stories that move from London to the coast of Spain, from Mauritius to Dublin to Dordogne. Whether his subject is assassination by stealth, the cruel confidence trick or the cold shock of coincidence, Frederick Forsyth is never less than compulsive, the detail always authentic.

From the Paperback edition.

From the Publisher

"Spellbinding. . .ten Forsyths for the price of one, who could ask for anything more?"--Forth Worth Star-Telegram.

Here are ten suspenseful, serpentine stories of betrayal, blackmail, murder, and revenge...all culminating in shocking twists of fate.

"Masterful."--Kirkus Reviews.

Within these pages live a wealth of characters you will not soon forget...people whose lives become irrevocably trapped in a world of no comebacks, beyond the point of no return--from the manipulators and the manipulated to the ultra-rich capable of buying and selling human lives, to the everyday man maneuvered by circumstances into performing deadly acts of violence.

"Chillingly effective."--Publishers Weekly

"Tense, explosive and vivid, No Comeback proves that Frederick Forsyth is truly the world's reigning master of suspense. A warming bedside companion."--Los Angeles Times
