At the centre of the conspiracy is Michael Lander, a deeply traumatised Vietnam veteran and blimp pilot whose psychological wounds have curdled into a lethal obsession, recruited by the ruthless Black September operative Dahlia Iyad to carry out an act of mass murder on a scale the world has never seen. Racing to stop them is Major David Kabakov of the Israeli Mossad, whose relentless pursuit across two continents becomes a desperate countdown against an enemy who has already decided to die.\n\nHarris constructs his narrative with the precision of a master engineer — each chapter tightening the tension like a vice, intercutting between hunter and hunted with cinematic urgency and an unsettling intimacy with the mechanics of terror. Published in 1975, Black Sunday arrived as a landmark of the modern thriller genre, predating Harris's iconic Hannibal Lecter series and demonstrating from the outset his singular gift for grounding the monstrous in the disturbingly human. The novel raises a question that lingers long after the final page: how does a society protect itself from an enemy who has already lost everything?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203105005787,"sku":"2026100009398-SECONDHAND","price":200.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/27a89791-bee6-4a1e-96a5-492c78ca6272.png?v=1788143800","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100009398-secondhand-black-sunday","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
