Synopsis

Every year three Jewish multi-millionaires hold the vital annual meeting of their Family Trust in total secrecy flying high above the Atlantic in 'no-man's land' where no tax is due to any government in the world. Secrecy is the only protection for their enormous wealth. Betrayed to money-hungry Communist intelligence agents, they become caught fast in the crossfire of the secret East-West Cold War being fought out behind recurring headlines reporting new financial crises threatening the West. The millionaires' only ally in this unequal struggle of hi-jacking and hostage-taking is a tough, unsympathetic newsman, Jonathan Robson, who develops a hankering for the beautiful, haughty daughter of one of the millionaires. And is Robson just a journalist? Or could he too be a spy? The breathtaking climax to this fast-moving first novel is reached twenty thousand feet above the Atlantic with the unleashing of a new 'secret weapon'.

Author Bio
Before achieving international bestseller status with SAIGON and PEKING, Anthony Grey was a foreign correspondent with Reuters, having begun his career in journalism in the UK with the Eastern Daily Press in Norfolk where he was born and educated. He covered the Cold War from datelines all across Eastern Europe before being assigned to China. He was the only British journalist resident in the Chinese capital at the height of the Cultural Revolution - and became the focus of worldwide headlines when he was seized as a hostage by Mao Tse-tungs's Red Guards and held in solitary for two years. After publishing his first international bestselling book HOSTAGE IN PEKING, a non-fiction account of his ordeal, he established himself as a radio and television presenter, bestselling novelist, independent publisher and frequent public speaker.
