Onderdeel van de reeks(en)The Destroyer (40)
The Olympics promise to be a rare relaxation in the tensions between the States and Russia, until a racial purist decides to punish America's multi-racial track-and-field team. The Americans, Russians, and Germans are confident that they can stop this racial terrorism until a bomb explodes in the super-secure Olympic village, killing two Russian security guards just before the torch is lit. As the threats come racing in, CURE's agents Remo and Chiun put on their running shoes--and join the U.S.'s Olympic team. Enlisting the aid of a beautiful and flexible Indian gymnast, Remo and Chiun race to track down the terrorists who vow to permanently disqualify America's track-and-field squad. But when the terrorists turn on Remo and Chiun, it's a sprint to the finish for CURE's agents to keep the Olympic torch aflame. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

But there is a kernel of something interesting about sport (and the Olympics), and this is in the middle of the Golden Age of Destroyer prose, so it's a very quick read.
As occasionally happens in these books, you can tell Sapir or Murphy visited the ostensible (Eastern European) location shortly before writing, or at least watched an engaging documentary about it, and wanted to get all of his/their ideas about that nation on paper. Which is an approach with both pluses and minuses. ( )
