Científicos nucleares, intriga internacional y un toque de romance.
Agatha Christie lleva a sus lectores a un fascinante viaje lejos de las casas de campo y los acogedores asesinatos de Inglaterra.
Un eminente científico británico, Thomas Betterton, desaparece misteriosamente después de un congreso celebrado en París. Al parecer, no se trata de un caso aislado, sino de la continuación de una serie de episodios parecidos que han sucedido reiteradamente en los últimos tiempos. Siempre se trata de hombres de ciencia que desaparecen sin ningún rastro de violencia y van a parar voluntariamente al otro lado del famoso Telón de Acero.
Hilary Craven, por su parte, ha perdido toda ilusión por vivir. Cuando conoce al agente Jessop, empeñado en descubrir el destino de un científico desaparecido, se verá envuelta en una peligrosa expedición al norte de África, con el objetivo de encontrar al científico y descubrir el motivo de su desaparición.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Nuclear scientists, international intrigue, and a touch of romance.
Agatha Christie takes her readers on a fascinating journey, far from English country houses and their cozy murders.
A prominent British scientist, Thomas Betterton, mysteriously disappears after a conference in Paris. It seems this is not an isolated case but part of a series of similar incidents occurring repeatedly in recent times. Each time, it involves scientists who vanish without a trace of violence, only to end up voluntarily behind the Iron Curtain.
Meanwhile, Hilary Craven has lost all hope in life. When she meets Agent Jessop, determined to uncover the fate of a missing scientist, she becomes entangled in a dangerous expedition to North Africa, with the mission of finding the scientist and uncovering the reason behind his disappearance.
