American agents abduct a high-profile terrorist in broad daylight on the streets of London, subduing him with a tranquilizer. He dies a few hours later on a flight back to Washington, DC, and the body is dropped into the ocean. Hours later, the President's brother - a political powerhouse in his own right - boards a plane to Las Vegas that doesn't land in Nevada. Libyan radicals are at the controls, and he is their prisoner. The only man who can save him is Chubb Dunjee. A former United Nations operative with skills in every aspect of political negotiation, Chubb became famous for solving problems with well-placed bribes. Saving the President's brother should be no trouble for him. But the Libyans don't want a bribe. They want blood. Ross Thomas (1926 - 1995) war ein amerikanischer Autor und Journalist. In den fünfziger JAhren richtete er das deutsche AFN-Büro in Bonn ein und arbeitete als Journalist, Gewerkschaftssprecher und Public Relations- und Wahlkampfberater für Politiker in den USA. Seine vielfältigen Erfahrungen verarbeitete er in seinen Politthrillern, in denen er v.a. die Hintergründe des (amerikanischen) Politikbetriebs entlarvt und bloßstellt.
