About this title

About the Author:

Since The Eagle Has Landed—one of the biggest-selling thrillers of all time—every novel Jack Higgins has written has become an international bestseller. He has had simultaneous number-one bestsellers in hardcover and paperback, and many of his books have been made into successful movies, including The Eagle Has Landed, To Catch a King, On Dangerous Ground, Eye of the Storm, and Thunder Point. He has degrees in sociology, social psychology, and economics from the University of London, and a doctorate in media from Leeds Metropolitan University. A fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, and an expert scuba diver and marksman, Higgins lives in Jersey on the Channel Islands.

From AudioFile:

Sean Dillon, Blake Johnson and Hannah Bernstein--the team from THE PRESIDENT'S DAUGHTER--return. This time they seek the identities of both a traitor inside the White House and an unlikely assassin, the silver-haired blueblood mother of a British agent killed by Irish terrorists. Dick Hill's narration is low-key and non-intrusive, gaining energy for the novel's action scenes. He creates a wide range of voices for the novel's extensive cast, even for minor characters such as the thugs in the opening action sequence. Most are effective, but a couple of the voices--Blake Johnson's and Jack Barry's in particular--wear out their welcome over the course of the reading. J.A.S. (c) AudioFile, Portland, Maine
