    About Surface to Air

    Malko Linge is assigned to tail a novice terrorist who has a plot to blow up Air Force One—and the weapons to make it happen.

    In New Jersey, Parviz Amritzar is mourning for his family—killed by a U.S. airstrike back in Pakistan—and vowing revenge against his adoptive country. He devises a plan to shoot down Air Force One and gets a lucky break when he reaches a terrorist contact who knows how he can obtain a surface-to-air missile from the Russians. When the CIA picks up on the rumors of this plot, they call on Malko Linge to carefully observe the would-be terrorist. But as soon as Malko thinks he has a handle on the situation, things become more unpredictable and much more dangerous.

    Praise

    Praise for the Malko Linge novels:

    “[De Villiers] writes as a hard-headed political realist…. His books tell unvarnished truths that many prefer to ignore.” —The Wall Street Journal

    “Will win fans among those who crave thrilling espionage escapism, especially those who relish Ian Fleming and Clive Cussler.” —Booklist

    “Blazingly fast…. Entertaining…. Readers may wonder why American publishers waited so long to bring the series to this country.” —Publishers Weeky

    “De Villiers’s books are ahead of the news and sometimes even ahead of events themselves.” —The New York Times Magazine
