'Sprightly Maltese Falconesque skulduggery . . . full of reverses and betrayals' Kirkus Reviews
Roy Case, ex-Royal Air Force turned cargo pilot, lands in Nicosia to discover that his employers have gone bankrupt. Stranded at a rapidly deteriorating hotel, and assaulted in the street, he realises that the cases clearly marked 'champagne' that he was supposed to be flying to Lebanon actually contain machine guns.
Luckily Case's old friend Cavitt is around to help, but no sooner are they rid of the guns than they get caught up in a terrorist plot that will draw them in, and start a hunt for a priceless long-lost relic.

About the Author:
Review:
Gavin Lyall (1932-2003) was a Royal Airforce pilot, journalist, and prolific author of spy and aviation thrillers.
His years as a Royal Air Force pilot lent his fast paced, tautly written aviation thrillers authenticity. His first novel, The Wrong Side of the Sky, was inspired by his personal experiences in the Libyan and Greece and became an international bestseller. He also worked as a journalist, first with the Picture Post and the BBC, then as the Sunday Times' aviation correspondent.
Plenty of action, some terrific flying scenes and a smooth narrative style all help make 'Judas Country' one of the best of its kind.
