At the Cry of the Falcon

Achim Zons

Thriller

In Damascus, Bashar al-Assad’s physician is shot dead. He is the fourth victim close to the dictator, but there has also been an attempt on the opposition’s leader’s life. Video footage shows journalist David Jakubowicz in the vicinity.

Since a German security firm is involved in these events, Tilda Hansson, head of a small counter-terrorist unit of the German Federal Intelligence Service, begins to untangle the threads. She finds Jakubowicz in a clinic in Switzerland, where the traumatized journalist recovers. What does he know about the attacks in Syria? All evidence points to his friend, the military photographer ‘Caesar’, who has disappeared. And what are the interests of the Federal Intelligence Service? Do they really only want to protect the opposition and find witnesses for Assad’s crimes? As Jakubowicz and Hansson, fascinated by each other, begin playing cat and mouse to get to the truth, the next attack takes place, this time in Switzerland… From Hongkong to Switzerland via Damascus and Munich, Achim Zons draws his readers into a tale of revenge and justice, greed and betrayal. And of love at times of war.
