Summary

Triple is the story of the most successful espionage coup of the twentieth century. This taut espionage thriller comes from the master of the genre, Ken Follett.

A Frightening Discovery

1968. The fledgling nation of Israel is threatened when the intelligence services find out that Egypt is only months away from developing nuclear weapons. An untimely end awaits the young nation unless a source of uranium for Israeli bombs can be obtained in complete secrecy. Impossible, of course, unless someone can be found to steal it.

A Daring Mission

Working alone, Israeli agent Nat Dickstein concocts an ingenious scenario for the biggest, and quietest, hijacking in history. A task made all the more difficult by the factions trying to stop him.

Time is Running Out

Dickstein plans to steal the uranium and fool the Russian KGB, Egyptian Intelligence and the Arab extremists, the Fedayeen. As the nuclear arms race in the Middle East escalates to frightening proportions, the fate of millions of lives hangs in the balance in this fictionalized account of one of the best-kept secrets of the twentieth century.

captivating couldn't put it down.

A very exciting portrayal of a confused period in world history.
The story is of a period of conflict which is often overlooked and which explains how things got to where they are now.

Brilliant story

The narrator brought to life an amazing number of characters. Each one came to life as it spoke.

Ken Follett has a truly enormous latent. This book was certainly very difficult to put down.

gripping

at the beginning of this book I thought it might be the only book that Ken has written that wasn't capturing my mind. How wrong I was.... this was gripping, exciting and full of action. I sat in my van for an additional 30 minutes after getting home from work, just so I could listen to this book.

Another gripping tale from Ken Follett

Nice background to Middle East issues in late 1960s. All characters drawn in a reasonably balanced way.

A true biopic, but a dull reading

Interesting history of Israel and Palestine. However, the reader has no energy, it was dull throughout.
