Publisher's summary

When Navy Commander Robert Bellamy is assigned to investigate the crash of a NATO weather balloon near an isolated village in Switzerland, he is told that its cargo includes new and highly classified equipment. All witnesses to the accident should therefore be found and questioned. However, as Bellamy conducts his search he begins to suspect that he too is being hunted by an unknown lethal force, and that what he was told about the balloon is only part of an almost unbelievable event. From Washington to London, Zurich, Rome, and Paris, the story unfolds to reveal Bellamy's past : why the woman he loves the most cannot return his love; why his friends become his deadly enemies; and why the world must never learn the incredible secret hidden in the Swiss Alps. Here is Sidney Sheldon at his best as the master of the unexpected.

Suspenseful and Surprising

Very fast moving and exciting. The story was excellent and kept listeners attention. The only negative was that it was poorly read with many words mispronounced which detracted from the story. Otherwise it was a great book.

The story is exciting, but the narrator subpar.

I read this book years ago and loved it. The storyline is suspenseful as government conspiracies go. The narrator was subpar and very monotonous. The sound quality has spots of static and volume issues. For an author like Sidney Sheldon, I expected better.

First Sheldon I've Read

I just did not enjoy this book, I was really expecting something better. It was slow, contrived, the main character was not empathetic and was whiney. It will be a long time before I try another Sheldon book.

Modern day sci-fi thriller

This book was a departure for Sidney Sheldon, who is usually known for plots involving romanance and adult drama. This, however, is a story worthy of the "X files", and a very good one, too. A mixture of sci-fi and intrigue, the plot moves quickly along and is loaded with action. Fans of sci-fi and suspense will like this one.
