Suicide Before Dying

WHO IS THE TERRORIST KNOWN AS THE ‘VIPER’ AND WHAT IS HIS TARGET?

The kidnapping of a young archaeologist during a dive in the Red Sea provokes a series of events which baffle Israeli Intelligence.

Adam Stern, a Mossad agent, is summoned to Jerusalem and given the task of finding Tatiana, the girl abducted from her camp site in the Sinai Peninsular, and the reason for her disappearance.

In the process, Adam uncovers a coded message depicting the drawing of an explosion of some kind. It is feared that the ‘Viper’ has selected a prominent target in Jerusalem. What is the target and when is his sinister plot going to take place?

Together with another agent, Rachel Rose, a young professor of ancient Egyptian studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, Adam follows a vague trail which takes them to Cairo, Paris and Istanbul.

Who is this killer they call the ‘Viper’? Where can they find him? Time is of the essence and progress is slow, that is, until they discover the ‘Viper’ has a girlfriend.
