Produktbeschreibung

An airliner has been hijacked and the clock is ticking... The riveting first novel from Craig Thomas, father of the technothriller

There is relief at Heathrow Airport after a Boeing 707 touches down safely, having experienced engine trouble mid-flight. But when the pilot stops answering the control tower's radio calls, panic spreads again.

During the landing, the plane was hijacked by a group of Americans. Their demands? The release of a known terrorist, Shafiq Nasoud, currently being held at HMP Dartmoor, and a clear flight to Lebanon. The price? The lives of everyone on board.

The Home Office quickly mobilises operation 'Rat Trap'. 'Ratcatcher' Hilary Latymer will negotiate with the terrorists, and Nasoud will be brought to London. The exchange will be executed safely and there are to be no casualties. But then the prisoner escapes...

Craig Thomas' first novel, Rat Trap, is a thrill-ride through the sky, perfect for fans of Robert Ludlum, Andy McNab and Brad Thor.

Autorenporträt

Cardiff-born, internationally bestselling author Craig Thomas (1942-2011) wrote eighteen novels between 1976 and 1998. His first novel, Rat Trap, was published in 1976, swiftly followed by the international bestseller, Firefox. It was after the success of this book that he left his job as an English teacher and became a full-time novelist. Thomas went on to write sixteen further novels, including three featuring the Firefox pilot, Mitchell Gant: Firefox Down, Winter Hawk and A Different War. Firefox attracted the attention of Hollywood and in 1982 was made into a film starring and directed by Clint Eastwood. The novel is credited with inventing the techno-thriller genre.
