End Game by Jeffrey Archer

 

London 2012. The Olympics are here but the envy and hatred from others is very apparent. Outwardly democratic, old enemies plot London’s downfall hoping to mar the process and create chaos and death at its closing.

The story evolves from the first electrifying announcement to its climatic closing ceremony. Espionage, sabotage, precise planning and implementation of orders, the power of money and how corruption at every level can be most dangerous for any kind of society fill this story. William Warwick designated top dog of security for the London Olympics has the unenviable task of keeping the scores of visitors, athletes, visiting dignitaries safe and this he does meticulously.

The story is intense and you cannot put the book down.
