Jack Drummond is an adventurer -- a tough ex-naval pilot who is fed up with too many hot countries and strange cities. He resolves to fly only one more mission.
Dropping off an illegal shipment of arms in Tibet (his last), Drummond is suddenly caught up in a bloody border war. To escape he must fly a boy king and a very beautiful woman to safety.
But someone has burned his plane and destroyed his supplies. To survive he must take on the entire ChiCom army. Against them he has only a plan. A very desperate plan.
Classic adventure from the million copy bestseller Jack Higgins The called it the Place of Silence: the last frozen barrier between Balpur and Tibet. An icy wilderness where desperate men made a living smuggling guns across the border. Even for the bravest, the luck has to run out... On what he thought would be his last flight, Jack Drummond found his own recipe for disaster. A deadly cargo of machine guns. A band of ruthless guerrillas. And a confrontation with the Chinese Reds, leaving no chance for escape...
Stan taki jak na zdjęciach. Oprawa przybrudzona i nieco otarta na krawędziach. Pieczątka na stronie przedtytułowej. Poza tym środek czysty. Pierwsze i ostanie karty ze śladami zamoczenia i nieco zażółcone. Blok zwarty. Krawędzie bloku zakurzone.
