Carr is flying a film company's plane around the Caribbean. The plane is an old war-time bomber, and Carr's job soon proves to be less peaceful than he expected. Gavin Lyall is an ex-RAF bomber, has spent four years writing for "The Sunday Times" and wrote his first thriller in 1961.

About this title

Review

Very good indeed. Gavin Lyall is a master of his craft, which is the expert of telling of an adventure rather than a crime story. * The Spectator * The vortex of Caribbean politics made even more turbulent by one of the most compelling of contemporary storytellers * New York Times *

About the Author

Gavin Lyall (1932-2003) was a Royal Airforce pilot, journalist, and prolific author of spy and aviation thrillers. His years as a Royal Air Force pilot lent his fast paced, tautly written aviation thrillers authenticity. His first novel, The Wrong Side of the Sky, was inspired by his personal experiences in the Libyan and Greece and became an international bestseller. He also worked as a journalist, first with the Picture Post and the BBC, then as the Sunday Times' aviation correspondent.
