From bestselling author Frederick Forsyth comes the riveting story of a plot to bring down the US presidency on the eve of a major disarmament pact.


The deadly game begins with one man who fervently believes that, to survive, the US must control one of the middle East’s richest oil-producing states. But the new President, idealistic John Cormack, would never agree to such a takeover. He is about to sign the most sweeping US/Soviet disarmament treaty ever envisioned. A plot is forged to stop the President – a plot that will succeed, unless one man can stop it. That man is Quinn – the Negotiator. He alone stands between the faceless assassins who have taken a hostage as a bargaining chip, and a leader too shattered to govern. As the world waits, Quinn must bargain for the young hostage’s life – and the fate of a nation rests on his shoulders.
