Three In the Back, Two In the Head
by Jason Sherman
Winner of the Governor General’s Literary
Award for Drama.
Donald Jackson, a weapons scientist
for America’s defence programme, is found dead outside a church. No
witnesses, no motive. When his son attempts to piece together the truth
behind his father’s death, he is embroiled in a world of double agents,
rogue states and global paranoia.
Inspired by the real life murder of
the Canadian weapons scientist Gerald Bull, Three In The Back, Two
In The Head grapples with the elusive nature of truth as the action
shifts across conflicting versions of the past. Was Jackson a force
for peace betrayed by merciless politicians? Or was he about to give
America’s greatest enemy the missile that could destroy it?
“It is both intelligent and has
that ‘page-turning’ quality of the best spy novels
– you want to know what will happen next.”
