Product Description
The scene: Turnberry, the famous golf course on Scotland's rugged west coast. The prize: The British Open, the most prestigious golf tournament in the world. The players: 150 of the game's top stars, battling over four days in front of tens of thousands of spectators and a television audience of millions. Fame and fortune await the winner. OPERATION BIRDIE takes the reader behind the scenes of big-time professional golf. We meet the jet-setting superstars from around the world, along with the straggling players just trying to make a living - all obsessed with winning at any cost. The action off the course is every bit as exciting as the battles on it: rich but bored wives looking for attention, mistresses and groupies looking for action, and the hard-nosed members of the media looking for a story. And mingling with the thousands of spectators are Martin Dignam and Marie Kirk, an IRA couple sent over from Belfast on Operation Birdie to disrupt the Open. The original plan was to blow up the war memorial on the course with no loss of life, but hard man Dignam has other ideas. OPERATION BIRDIE is a fast-paced thriller that golf fans and readers of all kinds will find very hard to put down.
