I love Robert Ludlum's vintage spy thrillers - anything up to Sigma Protocol. This one I haven't actually read yet, but I noticed I had two copies on the shelf (bad memory + an awesome bookstore that the local library has are the culprit for that) so this copy can travel. Perhaps it will make some (military?) persons' days nicer in the Far East...
From back cover:
"Alex McAuliff has received an offer he can't refuse: two million dollars for a geological survey of Jamaica's dark interior. All Dunstone, Limited, requires is his time, his expertise, and his absolute secrecy. No one - not even McAuliff's handpicked team - can know of Dunstone's involvement.
But British Intelligence is aware of the eal and they've let Alex in on a secret of their own: the last survey team Dunstone dispatched to Jamaica vanished ithout ta trace. Now it's too late to turn back. Alex knows about Dunstone... which means he knows too much.
From the moment he lands in Jamaica, Alex is a marked man. But who wants him dead? Dunstone? A rival company? Or British Intelligence? Here in an island paradise where even a beautiful woman might be a spy, every move could be his last, and his only clue to survival is a single mysterious word: Halidon.
Fist published under the pseudonym Jonathan Ryder, The Cry of the Halidon is vintage entertainment from suspense master Robert Ludlum."
