Présentation de l' Editeur

The world of the mercenary soldier, which has fascinated Frederick Forsyth since he reported the Biafra War, forms the background to this, his third novel. In the foreground, a fast-moving story involving mining, high finance, banking and the secret world of arms dealing, all meticulously researched, make this yet another unputdownable novel from the master storyteller of our time.

The discovery of a ten-billion-dollar mountain of platinum in the remote African republic of Zangaro causes Sir Jams Manson, a smooth, ruthless tycoon, to hire an army of mercenaries, whose task it is to topple the government and replace its dictator with a puppet president.But news of the discovery has reached Russia - and suddenly Manson finds he no longer makes the rules in a power games where the stakes have become terrifyingly high.
