Frederick Forsyth "Der Lotse",originalausgabe "The Shepherd". Eine Weihnachtsgeschichte vom weltberühmten Bestsellerautor.Am Heiligabend 1957 fliegt der Ich-Erzähler von einem Flughafen der Britischen Besatzungszone in Celle nach Hause. Er ist ein junger Jetpilot in einem einsitzigen Düsenjäger vom Typ Vampire, der mit 830 Kilometern pro Stunde über die Nordsee gen Heimat donnert, um dort die Weihnachstage zu verbringen. In 9 km Höhe über dem Meer fällt die Elektronik aus, also Kompass und Funkgerät. Er kann keine Hilfe rufen, und der Sprit geht bald zur Neige. Bei Nacht kann er sich nicht an Landmarken orientieren, und da über Ostengland dichter Nebel herrscht, kann er nicht einmal nach Sicht landen. Eine Rückkehr ist ausgeschlossen, der Sprit reicht nicht. Als unser Pilot bereits mit dem Leben abgeschlossen hat — im eisigen Wasser der Nordsee dürfte er nur wenige Minuten überleben —, taucht plötzlich eine uralte Propellermaschine aus dem 2. Weltkrieg auf, ein längst außer Dienst gestellter Jagdbomber vom Typ Mosquito. Doch der Pilot bietet ihm Lotsendienste an, die der in Bedrängnis geratene Jetpilot gerne annimmt

A chilling story of modern terrorism from the grandmaster of international intrigue. The Day of the Jackal, The Dogs of War, The Odessa File-the books of Frederick Forsyth have helped define the international thriller as we know it today. Combining meticulous research with crisp narratives and plots as current as the headlines, Forsyth shows us the world as it is in a way that few have ever been able to equal. And the world as it is today is a very scary place. When British and American intelligence catch wind of a major Al Qaeda operation in the works, they instantly galvanize- but to do what? They know nothing about it: the what, where, or when. They have no sources in Al Qaeda, and it's impossible to plant someone. Impossible, unless… The Afghan is Izmat Khan, a five-year prisoner of Guantánamo Bay and a former senior commander of the Taliban. The Afghan is also Colonel Mike Martin, a twenty-five-year veteran of war zones around the world-a dark, lean man born and raised in Iraq. In an attempt to stave off disaster, the intelligence agencies will try to do what no one has ever done before-pass off a Westerner as an Arab among Arabs-pass off Martin as the trusted Khan. It will require extraordinary preparation, and then extraordinary luck, for nothing can truly prepare Martin for the dark and shifting world into which he is about to enter. Or for the terrible things he will find there. Filled with remarkable detail and compulsive drama, The Afghan is further proof that Forsyth is truly master of suspense
