( ) Intriguing idea about an insidious plot against America's top scientists, who start disappearing one by one from laboratories. Turns out they have just remembered that they committed a terrible crime and need to run - very quickly. This is not Russell at his best - that would be Wasp - but it is an enjoyable story if you don't try to apply too much logic to it. While it really shouldn't be labeled as science fiction, it does fit in with the general paranoia in Wasp and to a much greater extent in his novel Sinister Barrier. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
Something bizarre is happening among the government workers at weapons laboratories across the United States. Increasing numbers of employees are abandoning their jobs for no apparent reason, some of them committing suicide, others trading their high-profile, specialized careers for unskilled jobs in obscure towns. One such employee, metallurgist Richard Bransome, is drinking coffee at a café when he overhears a conversation about a long-ago murder that has newly come to light. The details awaken Bransome's suppressed memory of a similar crime that he committed years before. Like his co-workers, Bransome takes flight, eventually discovering that his sudden recollection is linked to an enemy spy ring and a powerful new weapon. Set during the height of Cold War tensions, this mystery offers a compelling mix of espionage novel, crime drama, and psychological thriller. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
