No Place To Hide: Edward Lindall

Young Australian journalist Wade Scotter returns to his hometown Clayville, tired of the intrigues, hatred and mistrust of world politics. But when he reaches Clayville, the peaceful town no longer exists. An atomic research laboratory has been installed - the formerly tranquil town is now a hot-bed of international politics and everyone is curious to know why Scotter has chosen now to return from the world stage of business and politics? Has he returned because of the atomic research facility? Scotter is far from naive, but he does not see through the confusion that espionage and counter-espionage surrounding him. This is very sophisticated intrigue and he is also hampered by the emotions that connect him with the people of his youth. As well as being a thriller, this is also the story of a troubled man who, in the modern world, is no longer entitled to a life of his own - and has nowhere to hide.
