House of Pyramids

By Tom Reilly

Once again Reilly is back in his usual style with an adrenaline hyped thriller that will test the imagination, taking the reader halfway around the world on a code-red, the highest priority that could breach the nation's security and that of its allies. An assassination-style homicide occurs on pier 6 overlooking the Lake Windermere in one of the most expensive suburbs of Orlando Florida. Why was Hager Badawi, a 27 years Egyptian naturalized citizen and an aeronautics engineer specializing in the development and manufacture of intercontinental ballistic missiles, holding the position of chief engineer with the Exelis Space & Defence Corporation, murdered?. What is the motive? Homicide Detectives sergeants Connell and Brady, ex-Navy SEALS, and Lieutenant Tracy Bradley of Forensics are assigned to the case ending in an unbelievable journey through Egypt, Kuwait, and the Republic of Iran. Murder and assassination common place in search of the Holy Grail, the stealth of the top-secret Mach 7 missile programme for the US military, to be sold to the highest bidder in the melting pot of the Middle East. Should Irsael's enemies acquire such technology it could lead to the destruction of the Jewish State. The CIA and the Mossad must make sure this never happens and the clandestine special operation 'Iran Courage" is launched. An adventure that will take the reader through the Middle Eastern terrorist groups, their objectives and their stop at nothing assassinations, to achieve a seat at the nuclear table and that of the G7.
