Sommaire:
A gripping political thriller set in 1970s Australia amidst espionage and terrorism.

In September 1972, journalist Anna Rosen uncovers a web of political intrigue after two bombings rock Sydney. As she investigates the Ustasha movement, Marin Katich, a would-be revolutionary, embarks on a perilous mission from Australia into Yugoslavia. Their paths collide when the arrival of Yugoslavia's prime minister in Australia sets off a deadly international struggle.

Set against the backdrop of a nation grappling with its past and future, The Twentieth Man explores the dark underbelly of power, the ethics of journalism, and the human cost of political ideologies. Will Anna expose the truth, or will Marin's actions plunge them both into a world of irreversible consequences? A suspenseful journey through a nation's secrets, where the line between right and wrong blurs with every turn.
