The Sunday Times Thriller of the Month
'Stunning . . . one of the most compelling reads of the year' – Daily Express
Expertly researched and visionary in scale, international number one bestseller Ken Follett’s Never is more than a thriller. It imagines a scenario we all hope never comes true, one which will keep you transfixed until the final page . . .
A stolen US army drone. A shrinking oasis in the Sahara Desert. A secret stash of deadly chemicals.
Each is a threat to the stability of the world but individually are problems that can be overcome. In the diplomatic arena though, everyone will have a different way of dealing with such a threat. And when those in charge disagree and refuse to back down, it will kick off an international chain reaction with potentially catastrophic consequences: a world edging closer to war . . .
Now three people must work tirelessly and with the utmost skill to stop that from happening:
A spy working undercover with jihadists. A brilliant Chinese spymaster. A US president beleaguered by a populist rival for the next election.
The only question is, in a game of brinksmanship can the inevitable ever be stopped?

I love Ken Follet. His research and presentation on his chosen topic is impeccable and he balances sweeping sagas with ordinary life. This one was fascinating and DEEPLY disturbing. Dude went after China in a work of fiction. Bold move.
