How would you characterize espionage today?
Today, keeping things top secret is less important than being quick to think and to gather information. One of the key battlegrounds is business, and both countries and multinational corporations are fighting for key strategic knowledge they hope to be the first to use. In my novel Greenland: The Thriller, my heroes are little-known actors in this economic war for the future. Those with the best information will win the battle. The blood splattered on the ice sheets of Greenland belongs to shadow fighters, mercenaries fighting battles we don't learn about on the evening news.
Le French Book has two thrillers currently in the works:
- The Bleiberg Project, by David Khara, a fast-paced thriller that was an instant success in France, catapulting its author, David Khara, into the ranks of the country's top thriller writers. It is the James Bond-type thriller. Release date: April 30, 2013.
- Greenland: The Thriller, by Bernard Besson, is a thriller focusing on the geopolitical fallout of global warming disasters. The Arctic ice caps are breaking up. Europe and the East Coast of the Unites States brace for a tidal wave. Meanwhile, a team of freelance French spies pick up an ordinary assignment that quickly leads them into the glacial silence of the great north, where a merciless war is being waged for control of discoveries that will change the future of humanity. Release date to be announced.
Le French Book (http://www.lefrenchbook.com) is a digital-first publisher specialized in great reads from France. It was founded in December 2011 because, as founder Anne Trager says, "There is a very vibrant, creative culture in France, and the recent explosion in e-reader ownership provides a perfect medium to introduce readers to some of these fantastic French authors."
