The Copper Bracelet (Center Point Platinum Mystery)

Some of the world's greatest thriller writers have collaborated to bring readers The Copper Bracelet. Jeffery Deaver conceived the idea, imagined the characters and set the plot in motion. Other contemporary thriller writers propelled the story forward -- each of them writing one chapter -- before Deaver once again took the reins to bring the plot to its startling conclusion.

In this explosive sequel to The Chopin Manuscript, former war crimes investigator Harold Middleton returns. This time, Middleton is drawn into an international terror plot that threatens to send India and Pakistan into full-scale nuclear war. Careening from Nice to London and Moscow to Kashmir in order to prevent nuclear catastrophe, Middleton is unaware that his prey has changed -- and that the act of terror is much more diabolical that he can imagine. Will Middleton discover the identity of the Scorpion in time to halt an event that will pit the United States, Russia and China against each other?
