Catoplus Terror

Catoplus Terror is a novel by Sidney Sheldon.

This novel is about a set of oil companies recruiting a retired CIA agent – Mac the knife to apprehend Carlos. It takes us through the motions of Mac setting up his team, tracing information about Carlos’s whereabouts and finally tracking him down.

A nice read. The buildup was good in the beginning. One got the feeling that the author began to rush things after around 150 pages. The climax was quite a let down.

Carlos, the Terrorist seems to have inspired quite a few movies and novels. This link is a good summary of the same:
