O knjizi:
Classic action thriller with a bunch of tough guys going out to complete an impossible mission behind enemy lines. The narrator is the novice to these missions, but rises to the occasion magnificently. Since behind enemy lines means Novaya Zemlya in the Russian Arctic, it is also a tale of endurance and Ski-doos. Interestingly for a book written in 1970, there is a discussion of CO2`s and the greenhouse effect. Otherwise it is a tightly written, well informed, cold war thriller with the inevitable ice-cool blonde (also inevitably referred to as `the girl` throughout)

Duncan Kyle was an adventure writer of the 1970`s and 80`s who wrote in a similar vein to Desmond Bagley and Alastair Maclean. His books featured everyday people thrown into predicaments and needing their skills to survive. There are no James Bond gadgetry and outlandish plots here, it is very down to earth adventure.

In this novel, the lead character Dr Edwards receives a strange letter which is addressed to him but has a number of errors in the addressing. Leaving the letter aside, he heads out for a drive and nearly has an accident with another car. When a couple of other events occur, he realises that there is more to that letter than meets the eye.
