Gerald Seymour - Beyond Recall

When she had retrieved her coat and her bag, they went out on to the street and a blustery wind blew leaves and rubbish at their legs. He doubted he would tell her about a bear and a seal, and a friend who was a recluse and more friends who peddled quality skunk, and about an officer in the security apparatus of the Russian Federation who was dead, or about Knacker who was let go and was alone and thought himself worthless, tell her anything about the madness of days gone. They walked together, her hand in the crook of his arm.

Gerald Seymour spent fifteen years as an international television news reporter with ITN, covering Vietnam and the Middle East, and specialising in the subject of terrorism across the world. Seymour was on the streets of Londonderry on the afternoon of Bloody Sunday, and was a witness to the massacre of Israeli athletes at the Munich Olympics. Gerald Seymour exploded onto the literary scene with the massive bestseller Harry’s Game , which has since been picked by the Sunday Times as one of the 100 best thrillers written since 1945. He has been a full-time writer since 1975, and six of his novels have been filmed for television in the UK and US. Beyond Recall is his thirty-sixth novel.
