Review & Description
David Young, world renowned classical musician, was proud and pleased to be asked to perform at the 1987 Economic Summit in Venice. But the piece he would perform before the heads of state of seven Western nations, Murchison´s Nocturne, might set in motion events which would destroy the world.
David, along with his wife Dr. Allison Young, journeyed to Venice in a happy frame of mind. His happiness seemed only expanded when he met his old friend from college, Richard Mannheim, head of security for the summit.
But soon David and Allison were embroiled in a conspiracy to change the outcome of the Cold War. It was a conspiracy with origins in a Hanoi torture chamber over fifteen years before.
The Youngs planned to stay in Venice for just a week. Before that week would be over some lives would be destroyed and others changed forever.
Before that week would be over all life, everywhere, might be destroyed.
Nocturne is a novel of suspense set during a crucial time during the end game of the Cold War. One critic has called the story "Nick and Nora Charles meets the Manchurian Candidate." Once started, you will not be able to put the book down.
