Klappentext Originally published: Allen & Unwin (Australia), 1988.The eleventh book in the Cliff Hardy series, being re-released in a new package to celebrate the publication of the fortieth Cliff Hardy book. Zusammenfassung The eleventh book in the Cliff Hardy series Gareth Greenway wasn't all he seemed, but Cliff Hardy was used to that. What he wasn't used to was the shadowy world Greenway leads him into: neurosurgeons, mental patients, AIDS sufferers, all negotiating a landscape of dreams and delusions. An old friend of Hardy's ends up dead while Hardy chases the shadows, catching some, losing others. The accompanying stories find Hardy on more familiar ground. When organised crime, political corruption and the Australian army are involved, Hardy battles the odds. But when it comes to a man-to- man contest, put your money on Hardy to win.
