Bottom Line

Dr Elena Gladstone is an scientist. After hundreds of experiments she discovers that emotions, such as an animal's fear, produce a substance in the brain which can be isolated, purified and intensified, and then injected into the bloodstream of another animal . . . to produce exactly the same emotion. She has never published any of her research. In the back of her mind she has always known that there was a profit to be turned from it, which she knows would relate to how much she knew and how little others knew. It's not long before her experiments become reality, with ruthless and brutal consequences. Will this be the first time that Remo Williams, the Destroyer, finally gets a taste of fear? Breathlessly action-packed and boasting a winning combination of thrills, humour and mysticism, the Destroyer is one of the bestselling series of all time.
