About this listen

Action thriller by the classic adventure writer set in British Columbia.

Bob Boyd is a geologist, as resilient as the British Columbia timber country where he works for the powerful Matterson Corporation. But his real name and his past are mysteries – wiped out by the accident that nearly killed him. Then Boyd reads a name that opens a door in his memory: Trinavant – and discovers that Bull Matterson and his son will do almost anything to keep the Trinavant family forgotten forever…

Critic reviews

'As long as meticulous craftsmanship and honest entertainment are valued, and as long as action, authenticity, and expertise still make up the strong framework of the good adventure/thriller, Desmond Bagley's books will surely be read.' REGINALD HILL, Twentieth Century Crime and Mystery Writers

'Bagley is a master storyteller.' DAILY MIRROR

'Mr Bagley has no equal at this sort of thing.' SUNDAY MIRROR

‘Very much of the moment. The characters are sympathetic and believable’ SUNDAY TIMES

Classic Bagley

I remember reading a dusty paperback of this novel forty plus years ago, trapped inside during a very rainy summer holiday at the beach. Told from the viewpoint of a Canadian geologist with a mysterious past, there are rugged manly men (none so much so as our hero), a plucky heroine, and collection of good friends who support the duo against the odds. They must fight the corporation that owns the town and its various villainous lackeys. Landslide starts slowly, but builds to higher and higher high drama. This is still just the right sort of book for a tedious time stuck inside, and I was delighted to rediscover it in audio form - it gets an extra star for the nostalgia.

Thoroughly enjoyed the plot

Very few dull moments - I thoroughly enjoyed it. Great plot. Bagley at his best.
The narrator over emphasises words a bit, but you quickly get used to it. Otherwise, he reads clearly and his voices for the characters are excellent.
