Hell s corner
Uiterlijk 4 januari in huis
A terrorist plot has been directed at the President and the British Prime Minister. In the aftermath, the Camel Club are drawn into the investigation.
Oliver Stone - once his country's most skilled assassin - stands in front of the White House on Hell's Corner, perhaps for the last time. The president has personally requested that Stone serve his country again on a high-risk, covert mission. Though he's fought for decades to leave his past career behind, Stone has no choice but to say yes. But Stone's mission changes drastically before it even begins. It's the night of a state dinner honouring the British prime minister. As he watches the prime minister's motorcade leave the White House, a bomb is detonated in an apparent terrorist attack against both leaders. In the chaotic aftermath Stone takes on a new, more urgent assignment: to find those responsible for the bombing. Stone's opponents are elusive, capable and increasingly lethal. Worst of all, it seems that the park bombing may just have been the opening salvo in their plan. With nowhere else to turn, Stone enlists the help of the only people he knows he can trust: the Camel Club. But that may be a big mistake. In the shadowy worlds of politics and intelligence, there is no one you can really trust. And Hell's Corner truly lives up to its name. Acclaim for David Baldacci 'The page-turner of the season' The Times 'One of the world's biggest selling thriller writers, Baldacci needs no introduction . . . Brilliant plotting, heart-grabbing action and characters to die for' Daily Mail 'Baldacci is still peerless' Sunday Times
Hell's Corner is the blockbusting finale to David Baldacci's phenomenal Camel Club series.
On the night of the State Dinner honouring the British Prime Minister, Oliver Stone witnesses an explosion as the motorcade leaves the White House. A bomb has been detonated in what looks like a terrorist plot directed at the President and the Prime Minister.
In the aftermath, British MI5 agent Mary Chapman, an experienced, lethal operative with an agenda of her own, is sent to assist and coordinate the investigation alongside American authorities. Stone, together with Harry Finn, Alex Ford and the rest of the Camel Club, is drawn into the inquiry.
But everything is not what it seems, and what happened in the park may not have been the actual plan. It seems the mysterious attackers had another target in their sights, and it's up to the Camel Club to stop them, or face the catastrophic results.
