More about the book

"They see me as a maverick. A thorn in their sides they can't live without". Meet Harry Quartermain: a dashing but deadly French - Australian spy, sidelined by his CIA bosses as a loose cannon. When Quartermain's handler orders him to track down the world's most wanted terrorist, Mohammed Ihraz, he sees the chance to redeem himself and have a little fun in the process. But then a cargo jet carrying vials of a deadly flu pathogen crashes in the South Pacific, and the French Secret Service calls him in to investigate. How and why did the crash happen? Where is the wreckage - and the rogue virus? And what's the connection with the airline's billionaire owner? As Quartermain is drawn back to Australia, pursued by Ihraz, he's forced to confront painful memories of his parents and sister, and finds himself at the centre of an unthinkable conspiracy which threatens the lives of millions. Can Harry Quartermain make peace with his past and save the future of humanity?
