Özet

THE NEW LUKE CARLTON THRILLER.

MI6 operative Luke Carlton returns in his most exciting and unnervingly up-to-the-minute mission yet . . . Get ready for the new edge-of-your-seat spy thriller from the bestselling author.

In the dying light of an Arctic afternoon a monstrous black shape slips beneath the waters of Murmansk bay. Murmansk in the Arctic Circle is where Russia's fleet of nuclear-powered submarines is based - and the Novorossiya is one of their navy's most advanced - and dangerous - vessels . . .

Acting on information received from a high-ranking mole deep inside Russia's FSB, Britain's security services are convinced that the submarine is about to deploy a terrifying, game-changing device. As Europe goes into a state of high alert, MI6 operative Luke Carlton is sent into the hot zone that is the Finnish-Russian border. His mission to secure the safe extraction of this valuable MI6 asset and the intel he has in his possession - because it seems the West could be staring Armageddon in the face.

It's then that things start to go devastatingly wrong . . .

Breathlessly exciting, brilliantly authentic and unnervingly prescient, Ballistic is the new Luke Carlton thriller from the Sunday Times bestselling author and journalist who has his finger on the pulse of 21st century geo-politics and knows where the dangerous flashpoints are likely to be . . .

Eleştirmen yorumları

‘Frank Gardner’s up-to-the-minute thrillers combine authentic tradecraft, geopolitical insight and page-turning suspense.’ (CHARLES CUMMING, bestselling author of Box 88)
Carlton is a brilliant creation and his fifth outing makes Ballistic another must-read for fans of the intelligent thriller. Gardner is a worthy successor to the late, great Frederick Forsyth in writing topical, thought-provoking and prescient books that engage the brain while never letting up on the tension nor drama. 9/10
Tensions rise to boiling point . . . Gardner cuts to the molten core of a modern flashpoint in an electric thriller.
Everything is impressive in this masterly account . . . exhilarating (if alarming) topicality.
A genuinely unnerving and fast-paced race-against-time thriller . . . its potent combination of Tom Clancy-style hi-tech military and naval manoeuvring and a John Le Carre-like espionage thriller rings all too true . . . highly recommended.
Fast, taut, tense, accurate. A terrific read. (FREDERICK FORSYTH (on Crisis))
Gardner skilfully mixes knowledge garnered as the BBC’s security correspondent with breathless action.

I really enjoyed this book. Exciting and gripping from the outset, the plot was quickly established with more than a nod to the current global political scene.

Gripping story throughout, well written and narrated

This is his poorest book of the series in my opinion, it feels rushed, and the ending is poor, unless it is to be the start of his next book. Frank is a very poor narrator, and the books would be vastly improved with a voice artist reading thdm.

Not his best....

Great to hear Frank reading this. Story moves along and we have to assume the inside knowledge is accurate.
But too many handy slips and coincidences for me.
Will still buy the next one.

Mostly good

Frank Gardner brilliantly narrates a nail bitting story underpinned with a breadth of insights into the complex world of national intelligence and frontline services.

Depth & breadth of knowledge at its best.

I’ve been waiting for this instalment for a few months and it was worth the wait!

Excellent read !
