Despre această carte electronică
Don't miss the latest book in the Arkady Renko series, THE SIBERIAN DILEMMA by Martin Cruz Smith, ‘the master of the international thriller’ (New York Times) – available to order now!
'One of those writers that anyone who is serious about their craft views with respect bordering on awe' Val McDermid
'Makes tension rise through the page like a shark's fin’ Independent

Some secrets are worth more than gold.
Roman Grey, an antique dealer and gypsy, has no real interest in the Royal Crown of Hungary, temporarily on display at St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York City. But due to his expertise in historical artefacts, he reluctantly answers a summons to analyze and protect the priceless relic.
Then, despite an ever vigilant team of police and key experts, a daring heist is pulled off and murder and chaos follow. And amongst the madness, Grey uncovers a hundred year old secret about the royal artefact that is more incredible than he could have ever imagined . . .
