- The 8th Jonas Forbes thriller.
Martin Bormann, ex-Secretary to Hitler and fugitive war criminal, is rumoured to be alive and well in Uruguay. This awakes interest in various capitals – London, Washington and Tel Aviv – as, for differing reasons, Bormann is a very much wanted man. But Bormann has his protectors and Kameradenwerk decides he must disappear again.
Jonas Forbes is sent by the UK Foreign Office to locate Bormann and encounters an American, Marilyn Beauregard III, and a Gernan, Ilse Buch. Both women might like to further the acquaintance but both have their own agendas. Having rescued Ilse, Jonas takes her with him as he hunts for Bormann, although he cannot discover what she’s after. As usual, communications between Jonas and any contact at home (Foreign Office, Scotland Yard and his factotum, Vanessa) weaken to vanishing point with time.
Meanwhile from Brazil both Mossad and Kameradenwerk launch expeditions to find Bormann – one to take him back to Israel for trial as a war criminal and the other to bury him once again in obscurity.
Life takes a turn for the worse when Jonas and Ilse intrude on the estancia of Don Esteban but they’ve got even worse trouble ahead.
Why is Ilse accompanying Jonas? How do gauchos give Vanessa nightmares? How does Marilyn get it all wrong and then tries to make it right? Who will find Martin Bormann?
A thriller firmly set in 1962 Uruguay and stretching Jonas’s resources to breaking point.
