It is the early hours of the morning, just before dawn. Three Arab guerillas are making their way across northern France, to the ferry port of Boulogne. Their mission is to assassinate a senior Israeli nuclear scientist, due to arrive in London three days later. However, their passage has been logged across Europe by Israeli secret service men: their car is ambushed and two of the team killed. The one survivor, Abdul-el-Famy, escapes and finally joins forces with his contact in London, an IRA gunman who has been told to supply the guerillas with the arms and explosives they need for the attack. In uneasy partnership the two men decide to strike during the scientist's one public appearance - on a lecture rostrum at London University. Meanwhile the Israeli Government steadfastly reafuses to cancel their scientist's visit, leaving the British secret service the thankless job of intervening before it is too late. But how do you stop two unidentified killers, set on glorty at all costs?287 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.) .
