Thriller
This action-packed thriller moves at a breakneck pace over
a two-week period in real locations in London and New
York, against a background of political intrigue and an
escalation of policy differences between Washington and
Westminster, concerning the buildup of terrorist activity
in the Middle East, Asia, and Chechnya.
As Quentin Dart, music critic for The London Times, and
his fiancée, Alexandra Matviyko, attend a performance of
Eugene Onegin, Tchaikovsky's opera, at London's Royal
Opera House, the conductor, Petya Gubin, is murdered in
his dressing room. The murder is investigated by the Scotland Yard and the
FBI as suspicions grow regarding Gubin's fringe activities
in the U.S. Conspiracies surrounding the movement of large
amounts of cash are unearthed, linked to the buildup of
international terrorist cells and the procurement of
weapons of mass destruction. Quentin gradually begins to understand more of the murky
and puzzling chain of circumstances into which he has
become involved.
