2016 | Nakladatelství Bohemian Ventures, spol. s r.o.

Eminent scientist Dr Ralph Padley is dying - and he knows it's time to finally tell the truth. Padley has a dark secret, which, if it got out, would have deadly consequences. But there are powerful men who will stop at nothing to silence him. FBI Special Agent Reilly has an agenda of his own. For months he has sought t…he man who kidnapped and brainwashed his five-year-old son. But that man is a ghost - a highly protected CIA official with no name and no identity, and who may have links to Reilly's own father. Watched, manipulated, and framed for crimes he didn't commit, Reilly becomes a fugitive, making it next to impossible for him to uncover the truth about his past while protecting the family he loves. He's left with no choice but to risk everything to unearth secrets that would shake the country to its core - if he's ever allowed to get that far.

O autorovi

Raymond Khoury

Z Libanonu utekl před občanskou válkou, absolvoval střední školu ve Spojených státech, po návratu do Bejrútu vystudoval architekturu, ale znovu prchal před obnovenou válkou. Usadil se v Londýně a začal pracovat jako architekt. Chtěl si koupit dům na Bahamách, a právě tehdy se setkal s člověkem, který se živí tím, že pomáhá spisovatelům psát scénáře na základě jejich vlastních knih. Tak nějak se pokusil něco napsat a Raymond Khoury objevil svůj literární talent. --- Poslední templář, kniha, jejíž české vydání se stalo nejprodávanější knihou roku 2006.
