About this Item

"First Edition" and full printing line ending in "2" on the copyright page, so a 1st printing. (The publisher removed "First Edition" for 2nd printing.) Book is in very good condition, marred only by a shallow reading crease in spine, plus wear to cloth on hinge folds and edges of boards. Binding is tight and square. Boards are sharp cornered and unmarked, with bright gilt titles on spine. Pages are unmarked. Not a remainder. The unclipped dust jacket, now protected by a removable mylar cover, is in near fine condition: bright, whole and unmarked, with a 3/4" closed edge tear on back, a light bump to base of spine, plus some light rubbing. As with all Space Age Book purchases, I will ship this book in a moisture proof zip-loc bag, padded in bubble wrap, inside a sturdy box to assure it reaches its proud new owner in the same condition as my description. Note: shipment outside the USA will require additional postage for this very heavy (2.5 pound) book.

About this title

Synopsis

It begins in Geneva. There American lawyer Joel Converse meets a man he hasn't seen in twenty years, a covert operative who dies violently at his feet, whispering words that hand Converse a staggering legacy of death: "THE GENERALS...THEY'RE BACK...AQUITAINE!" Suddenly Converse is running for his life, alone with the world's most shattering secret. Pursued by anonymous executioners to the dark corners of Europe, he is forced to play a game of survival by blood rules he thought he'd long left behind. One by one, he traces each thread of a deadly progression to the hear of every major government—a network of coordinated global violence that no one believes possible. No one but Converse and the woman he once loved and lost. The only two people on earth who can wrest the world from the iron grasp of Aquitaine.
