Samenvatting:

A plane brought down in flames. A dead man the only witness as the dominos start to fall

On the Russian border with Afghanistan, the wreckage of a military transport plane lies half-submerged in a lake. Everyone on board is dead, only their charred remains left behind.

British intelligence operative Patrick Hyde, in hiding in Tajikistan, witnesses the tragedy. He discovers, to his horror, the identity of one of the bodies: Irena Nikitina, the wife of a high-ranking politician leading Russia's liberalisation reforms.

But was her death an accident? Within the crumbling Soviet Union, not everyone is as supportive of reform as the Nikitins. A rogue group of Russians working with Western collaborators will lose everything if peace prevails, and are prepared to use any means necessary to restore hard-line communism.

Hyde must act quickly and uncover the conspiracy against the Nikitins, before it is too late. But with British, American and Russian conspirators around every corner, this may be Hyde's most dangerous mission yet

Perfect for fans of Lee Child and Desmond Bagley, The Last Raven is a tale of political terror and deadly patriotism, from master storyteller Craig Thomas.
