Mark Terry

    Mark Terry píše napínavé thrillery, ktoré často čerpajú z jeho hlbokých znalostí biológie a verejného zdravia. Jeho diela skúmajú temnejšie stránky ľudskej povahy a zložité zápletky, ktoré čitateľov udržia v napätí. Terry majstrovsky spriada napätie a psychologické prvky, čím vytvára nezabudnuteľné príbehy. Jeho próza je úderná a jeho postavy sú farbisté, čo z neho robí výrazného autora v žánri thrilleru.

      Neznámy páchateľ, ktorý sám seba nazýva "Had" – z veľkej časti preto, lebo má pocit, že to znie ako z akčného filmu a rád sa vidí ako veľký akčný hrdina – vypustí skoro ráno do reštaurácie v centre Detroitu nervovoparalytický plyn sarín. Zabije ním vyše päťdesiat nevinných ľudí. Krátko nato sa ozve s požiadavkou na milióny dolárov, inak svoj útok zopakuje v ešte väčšom meradle. Kým sa miestna pobočka FBI stihne rozhýbať, na scéne sa objavuje Derek Stillwater, ktorý – aj napriek polenám, ktoré mu hádže pod nohy miestny veliteľ – sa spojí so svojráznou agentkou a pustí sa po stope, ktorá nikomu nepripadá dostatočne zaujímavá. Ženú ho bolestné spomienky na tragédiu, ktorú spôsobila japonská sekta Óm Šinrikjó, keď vypustila sarín do tokijského metra. Je rozhodnutý za každú cenu zastaviť ďalší útok.
