Publisher's Summary

Triple is the story of the most successful espionage coup of the twentieth century. This taut espionage thriller comes from the master of the genre, Ken Follett.

A Frightening Discovery

1968. The fledgling nation of Israel is threatened when the intelligence services find out that Egypt is only months away from developing nuclear weapons. An untimely end awaits the young nation unless a source of uranium for Israeli bombs can be obtained in complete secrecy. Impossible, of course, unless someone can be found to steal it.

A Daring Mission

Working alone, Israeli agent Nat Dickstein concocts an ingenious scenario for the biggest, and quietest, hijacking in history. A task made all the more difficult by the factions trying to stop him.

Time is Running Out

Dickstein plans to steal the uranium and fool the Russian KGB, Egyptian Intelligence and the Arab extremists, the Fedayeen. As the nuclear arms race in the Middle East escalates to frightening proportions, the fate of millions of lives hangs in the balance in this fictionalized account of one of the best-kept secrets of the twentieth century.

Great spy story with a cringeworthy sexual subplot

The book follows the trend of several of Follett’s novels. Excellent spy story, great characters, seamisly moving back and forward from subject to subject. But it’s let down by a grossly detailed, cringeworthy and near on perverted sexual subplot that threatens to derail the excellent main story. It’s hard to read/listen to the parts of the book that detail the sex acts between the characters - details which have no bearing on the overall story.

Brilliant as you would expect from Ken Follett. If true what a brilliant plot and congratulations to Israel. May they survive forever.

A good spy-thriller.

I thought the Israel, Egypt, Russia/KGB plot had great twists and turns with characters I could visualise.

I liked it 👍🏻

Many subplots but no clear hero

Little lost in the double & triple espionage going on … sad that it is probably very much real life all around us … but overall I felt it is not my favourite Follett book. Just a few too many sub plots and finally no real hero or villain.
