This review is from: This United State: 2 Cassettes, 3 Hours (Audio Cassette)

In Colin Forbes's 25th novel, Britain's best MI6 secret agents Tweed, Paula Grey and Bob Newman are back, along with regular characters such as marksman Marler and heavies Butler and Nield. In the opening pages, the director of the CIA, Cord Dillon, is saved from a bullet by Paula Grey. The Prime Minister is assassinated by a mystery sniper known only to MI6 as The Phantom(oh dear, mediocre nickname!). Then chaos reigns in London as terrorist bombs explode at power stations, department stores and in Oxford Street. Who are the protagonists? The action moves from the UK and the county of Kent across Europe to Switzerland and Germany's Black Forest, where the good guys discover a frightening conspiracy so audacious it seems only a miracle will prevent it . . . and why is Tweed faced with open hostility at the US Embassy while investigating the attempt on Cord Dillon's Life? Read on and you will find out! Top US diplomat Werner Morgenstern and also Sharon Mandeville, a woman of mystery with connections high up in thw White House seem to know more than they let on. The story takes on a dramatic twist as Morgenstern presents Tweed with an additional conspiracy theory: the US is planning to incorporate Britain into its own system as its 51st state. Hmmm. Overall, in spite of a blatant anti-American stance in parts which may seem inappropriate now, this book is still worth a read due to an intriguing plot(if somewhat unoriginal in places, borrowed in part from Robert Ludlum's THE PARSIFAL MOSIAC with its high-up-in-the-White-House corruptibles), a fast paced narrative, well researched locations and all the regular characters drinking plenty of champagne and staying in the best hotels as ever! Good old Colin Forbes!
