Red Brigade

Italian terrorists, organized in the Red Brigade, raid the American Neo-Chem laboratory just outside Rome. A staff member is murdered, but even more serious is what the terrorists loot: a quantity of deadly virus that, once released, will have catastrophic consequences for humanity. The Red Brigade comes up with a terrifying ultimatum: the Italian prime minister must resign and they want a hundred million British pounds in exchange for the virus ...
In a last ditch effort to save the case, UNACO agents Graham, Whitlock and Carver are sent to Italy. They must get the virus under control by any means necessary. But the clock is ticking and the deadline is approaching alarmingly close...
Alistair MacLean's Red Brigade is a super exciting thriller full of action and adventure. The hunt for the virus takes you from New York to London, via Italy to Switzerland. Red Brigade is a worthy successor to Dodentrein and Nachtwacht in which the three UNACO agents also play a leading role.
