HE HAS BECOME THE MOST POWERFUL MAN IN THE WORLD... NOW HE HAS TO SAVE IT...
'The publisher is already describing Mr Glass as the heir to Tom Clancy (for The Hunt for Red October) and to Michael Crichton (for State of Fear, his diatribe about global warming). Ultimatum is better than either of these. The first politico-diplomatic-disaster thriller, Mr Glass's engrossing work leaves the reader thinking long after the last page is turned.' Economist

Klappentext zu „Ultimatum “
Joe Benton has just been elected the forty-eighth president of the United States. Only days after winning, Benton learns from his predecessor that previous estimates regarding the effect of global warming on rising sea levels have been grossly underestimated. With the world frighteningly close to catastrophe, Benton must save the United States from environmental devastation. He resumes secret bilateral negotiations with the Chinese - now the world's worst polluter - and as the two superpowers lock horns, the ensuing battle of wits becomes a race against time. With tension escalating on almost every page and building to an astonishing climax, Matthew Glass's visionary and deeply unsettling thriller steers us into the dark heart of political intrigue and a future that is all too terrifyingly believable.
