No surcease--not for fearless Patrick Dawlish this next-to-?-time as he confronts some sort of organized brain drain after a nice young aerospace scientist and his family are burned to bits (having refused an offer to work for others) and an explosion in a Soho club. It isn't the Russians, for once, but a strange sect, the Shangrians, and their guru Sa Di who are engaging in this ""industrial cannibalism."" Middle-grade series, but a hard-to-swallow story even in its Unicap form.
