Synopsis
Callan wants out - out of the Section, out of the whole dirty business - but his reputation as a ruthless, ice-cold professional killer precedes him. He seems the ideal man to rescue the daughter of a radical Greek politician from her kidnappers, or so say both his former employers in the Section and his long-time enemies in the KGB. With his only trustworthy ally, the timid and often pungent Lonely, Callan sets off for Crete knowing that failure or refusing to do the job could result in his own name on one of the Section's deadly Red Files.

Hardback. Condition: Very Good Plus. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First UK Edition. 1974. First U.K. edition. [iv], 281pp. James William Mitchell (1926-2002) was a British writer, principally of crime fiction and spy thrillers. He is probably best known as the creator of the British television series When the Boat Comes In (BBC) and Callan (Thames Television). "Callan" aired between 1967 and 1972 and starred Edward Woodward as David Callan, an agent of a state secret service dealing with internal security threats to the United Kingdom. In this story Callan's days with the Section are over. But that couldn't last. The mysterious Dr Blythe - the urbane dentist with more than a passing interest in Greek wine and Greek boys - wanted to contact him with a proposition. Soon Callan and the faithful Lonely were on their way to Crete; the objective was kidnapping.The book is bound in the original red boards with silver titling on the spine. The case of the book is in very good + condition with bumping to the bottom of the spine. The contents are tight and clean with no inscription and the book is probably unread. The unclipped dustwrapper is also very good with some light shelf wear and the spine is faded. The corners are rubbed and there is bumping to the bottom of the spine.
