A pyrotechnic thriller for the 21st century, In the Evil Day summons up a world where everyone is under surveillance, where information is more dangerous than explosives, and where secrets are worth much more than human lives. Five people lie dead on the floor of a fortified Johannesburg mansion. In his hands, the solitary survivor holds his death warrant-a videotape. Powerful men and powerful nations will kill Con Niemand to keep it buried. The tape and the man must be erased. Peter Temple's perilous world of paranoia and broken love stretches from Johannesburg to London, from Hamburg to the Welsh hills. In the Evil Day is a mesmerising novel, a masterpiece of suspense. 'This is a deliciously complex and well-written action piece that will soon suck you in...' Courier Mail
