y acclaimed, intelligently written first novel, Anthony Hyde gives us the thrilling story of a search -- from Canada to Georgetown to Paris to Leningrad, and finally to an isolated Russian village -- for a missing man, a missing fortune, and the key to a tantalizing mystery half a century old. This book sets the standard for Cold War suspense novels.
"High entertainment of the first order."
THE BOSTON GLOBE
A journalist finds himself drawn into the labyrinth of Soviet history while investigating the disappearance of an old flame's father. Sutherland's narrative is a pleasure to hear in and of itself. His smooth, subtle voice projects regret, longing and suspense, moving naturally from whisper to sigh to panicked ramble. His characterizations of intoxicated speech are quite convincing, his foreign accents less so. The abridgment, written by the author, is smooth and logical though the editing breaks at the ends of sides are not. E.S.B. An AUDIOFILE Earphones Award winner (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
