Product Description

As 'Scarecrow' Schofield watches his mission to eliminate a Siberian turn into a bloodbath, he realises he has been tricked -- and now become the prey rather than the predator. For a shadowy consortium of staggering power and wealth has included his name on a list of fifteen targets to be eliminated without fail by twelve noon that same day. Now every high-powered bounty hunter on the planet is on his trail, while he must simultaneously track down the perpetrators of a conspiracy about to reduce many of the major cities of the world to ashes.

From Arctic Russia to the Afghan border, to France's Atlantic Coast, to a speed-of-light conflict over the Suez Canal, every form of ultra-tech weaponry comes into play in a spellbinding action drama unfolding within a mere twenty-four hours.

Breathless!!
Scarecrow is a great read if you like action and adventure stories. The plot twists and turns and the action sequences seem never ending, and leave you breathless. It would make a great movie except you would leave the theatre exhausted!

fast-paced....you had better believe it!!!!
what can i say, words fail me....
i am reading this book at the moment and having read contest, ice station and temple already was prepared for a good read...
this book doesn't disappoint , if you like your action fast-paced and far-fetched but still beleivable then you won't go far wrong.
like the other titles you just can't put this one down , its causing me late nights when i just must see whats over the page and cold baths when i realise i've just spent an hour reading and the waters cold!!!
gets the adrenalin running just reading it...

thoroughly recommended.!!!!

enjoy!!!

the best book ever!
this is without doubt the best book Ive ever read. Absolutely non-stop action from start to finish with no idea where its going to end up.

Fantastic and worth 10 shiny stars.

the only trouble is, Ive read that this is Matthew Reillys best book so i don't want to be disappointed by reading his previous books.
