Omschrijving
Mateus Cordozo has just returned to his hometown of Afife, Portugal, a short vacation where he hopes to reconcile his midlife crisis - far from his "normal" life as a bio-engineer back in Sweden. With two bottles of wine, cheese and freshly baked-bread, he finds a secluded spot on a blustery beach, where he is certain that no one will interrupt his soul-searching. But that's where the vacation ends. A stranger appears and soon informs him that a nuclear war is imminent as China has just invaded Iran for its oil, and that he and his particular research group back in Sweden have the means of stopping the debacle. An introvert and certainly not the hero-type, Cordozo adamantly rejects her claim as ridiculous and outlandish, but over the course of the next hours, all of that will change as the global theater enters into a race against time - the bomb or mankind - and Mateus has to make a decision. "This is a fast paced read but the plot contains complex ideas which adds a depth to the book. Full of action and real life scenarios this is one of those books you can spend hours reading without realizing where the time has gone. There are plenty of surprises and twists. This book will appeal to crime and science fiction fans. And will also interest those intrigued by geopolitical themes."
The Portugal News "The story races along with pace of a Tom Clancy thriller but the depth of the plot is rich in complexities philosophical ideas. Highly recommended for readers who like fast paced thrillers but with an ingenious twist."
Book-Reviewer.com "I definitely recommend Twilight Visitor by Real Laplaine as a five star read to all audiences fond of international political thrillers. It has an awesome, suspenseful plot that can be described as an out of this world political intrigue!"
BlogCritics.org "... a high concept thriller that is comparable with the best of Dan Brown or Jack Higgins."
Novelist, David Luddington
