The Devil's Alternative

by Frederick Forsyth

It is 1982. A man is rescued, near-naked and unconscious, from a skiff floating in the Black Sea swell off the coast of Turkey; a few fateful months later the world stands at the brink of the Unthinkable, as men and women in Washington, Moscow and London, Berlin, Tel Aviv and Rotterdam, struggle against the ticking countdown to doom. How this seemingly insignificant beginning leads inexorably to so cosmically threatening a climax provides the narrative backbone of Frederick Forsyth's overwhelming and long-awaited new novel. A failed Russian grain crop, a fanatic band of Ukrainians (terrorists or freedom fighters, depending on your viewpoint), a last-chance Soviet-American treaty, a loaded supertanker held hostage in the North Sea, a British agent in Moscow loving and imperiling a secretary in the Kremlin -these are only some of the strands so skillfully plaited into an ever-tightening cable of terror. Utter control of complex materials, a plot line that arrows swift and true to the target, and surprises that come like pistol shots are the ingredients in Forsyth's alchemical blend. It is 1982.
