Lionel Davidson ~ Kolymsky Heights

Lionel Davidson ~ Kolymsky Heights


I'd like to think this is the kind of spy book Umberto Eco would write. Well-researched, plausible plot. This is not James Bond. Instead, the reader is draw into a facinating puzzle: how does somebody sneak into a top secret military base in Siberia? And, how do you get out? Johnny Porter is an unforgetable character and the scenery and action is crisply told.


Synopsis
Canadian-Indian, brilliant linguist, physically courageous, Johnny Porter finds a summons on his desk in Oxford to embark upon a mission only he can accomplish - to infiltrate a research station hidden deep under the Siberian permafrost, and so secret that no scientist ever leaves it alive.
