Description:
The book looks new.
"The Day After Tomorrow" is a fast-paced thrill ride. It starts as a man named Paul Osbourne sees his father's killer sitting across from him in a cafe.
When Paul's emotions get the better of him, he attacks the man in front of everyone. As the story progresses, not only do we find out that there was more to this man than we thought, but there is more to EVERYONE than we think.
Paul and an American police officer (sent over to France to investigate some strange beheadings) are sent on a mad dash across Europe to escape an evil Organization set on killing anyone who gets in the way.
Plots and subplots galore keep this book interesting from the first page to the last. And with a finishing line enough to make one re-read it dozens of times before finally closing the cover, this is definitely a book that shouldn't be missed.

School Library Journal - Susan McFaden (03/19/1995)

Straub
"A page-turning whopper....A veritable encyclopedia of planes, trains automobiles, plastic explosives, hairbreadth escapes, and passionate cliches."
Straub
