A rather unbelievable plot that the USA plans to make Great Britain it’s 51st state. The Prime Minister of Great Britain has been assassinated as well as senior ministers in France and Germany. An informant has been killed by a mysterious marksman, they call the Phantom. There is a gang of American henchman, with diplomatic passports setting bombs around London. The trail leads Tweed and his team to Basel, Switzerland then into the Black Forest in Germany, Strasbourg and then to Paris. The final climax takes place on Romney Marsh as a hostile US Navy taskforce approaches Britain, but Tweed and his team save the day.

Caught today at Redgum Cafe.

The storyline, although a tad convoluted, was entertaining enough.
The fact that all the parties, both good and bad, always ended up in the same hotel in various cities was rather too coincidental. However the plot is shockingly prophetic and I do hope Britain remains strong and never succumbs to superpower indulgences.
It certainly stirred my imagination.

It’s a long time since I have read a Colin Forbes book. This is a story of Britain in danger. The trail to discover who is behind the assassination of the Prime Minister leads to Switzerland and into the Black Forest before returning to Britain.

It was too much for me after all, so it will go......
