Red centre - Frederick Nolan (First edition)

The brutal execution of an undercover CIA agent. Sixty-one million dollars’ worth of pure white cocaine. A GRU honey trap with a beautiful Czech double agent as bait. A spy satellite in geostationary orbit above the Equator. A five-hundred-million-dollar intercept station near Alice Springs, Australia. An American-based British security agency that does not officially exist. A Russian intelligence initiative codenamed ‘Open Window’.

What have all these in common?

What is their connection with Butler Mitchell, a top-echelon computer security specialist with marriage and money problems? With Viktor, a high-level Russian military intelligence defector who may have been a plant? With Pedro Avranilosa, a Miami drug ‘ambassador’ working for Cuban intelligence? With Drosdow, the Russian agent posing as a Turkish-born drug dealer from Bogotá? Or with David Caine, a British secret agent on the run from his own people, and Lynda Sanchez, a lovely Cuban-American widow.

Frederick Nolan’s latest compelling thriller plunges the reader into a terrifying world of treachery, betrayal, and sudden death. Alone and hunted by every law-enforcement agency in America, only Caine and Lynda Sanchez can prevent the master spy from achieving his ends. As topical as tomorrow’s headlines, Red Centre is set in the new, technological world of espionage, where computers and satellites wage incessant, silent warfare upon each other, and the lives of human beings are no more than the necessary price that must be paid.
