Over the top

Quinn must be Forsyth's most o.t.t. hero. This good-looking former Green Beret isn't just a crack shot & explosives expert. He speaks French, German, Dutch and Spanish well enough to convince the natives that he's one of them. He's a master tactitian with a high IQ, a great detective and a master of disguise. He can pick locks and break into - and escape from - a property guarded by electrified fences, trigger-happy bodyguards and free-range Dobermans. Wow! Whadda hero! And he's the world's best hostage negotiator, too. Just a bit too much to be a believable hero.

intriging
|
|
although in this time several items are out of date, the writer makes the conspiracy very well imaginable, the details about the countries, the persons discribed make the story as real as it can get. Not untill the very last page one knows the true conspiracy. I had to read it in one time, could not stop.
