Synopsis

Giles Denison's life is turned upside down when he awakes to find himself in a luxurious hotel in Oslo and, peering into the bathroom mirror, discovers the face of another man! He has been kidnapped from his flat in London and transformed into famous Finnish scientist, Dr Harold Feltham Meyrick. Compelled to adjust to his new persona (including meeting his daughter) and to play out the role assigned to him by his captors, he embarks on a dangerous escapade from Norway to Finland and across the border into Soviet Russia.

About the Author:

Desmond Bagley’s transition from unskilled printer’s apprentice, aircraft engineer, miner, nightclub photographer and radio scriptwriter to one of the world’s most respected thriller writers is legendary. Travelling to almost every continent to research his exotic storylines, he was described by The Times as a ‘craftsmanlike thriller novelist’, whose stories are as exciting today as when they were first published.
