{"product_id":"2940149747900","title":"Below the Thunder","description":"Robin Duval’s follow-up to Bear in the Woods is a heart-in-mouth tale of international conspiracy, self-discovery and romance. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne summer evening in Bavaria, fortyish history professor Bryn Williams – more Frasier than Bond – falls simultaneously into love and mortal danger. He becomes a target for MI6, Mossad and an American hit man. Oblivious to his predicament, he continues his holiday in America. Walking alone in a National Park, he stumbles on a newly dead body. He is arrested for murder, and released only when evidence of a third party emerges. But when he discovers the identity of the killer, and reports it to the San Francisco police, his motel room is blown up. With no-one to turn to, he flees north. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe is intercepted in the mountains by a cousin, who works for MI6. And by the woman he fell in love with in Bavaria. They persuade him – against his better judgment – to help frustrate a plot to destroy the American President. He is drawn into a web of conspiracy and deceit whose true nature only gradually becomes apparent. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the narrative races towards its unexpected and shocking climax, the hero discovers untapped reserves of talent – as lover and as man of action. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is also a tale about the underbelly of American and international politics. About the secret forces that drive people and nations towards destruction.","brand":"Matador Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47075773153520,"sku":"2940149747900","price":6.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940149747900_p0.jpg?v=1763722533","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940149747900","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
