About this Item

Hardback. First Edition. Price clipped to D/J. This book is a deceptively cool novel within a documentary framework. The author unlike most novelists concered with espionage, writes as an insider, and his description of the recruitment and indoctrination of an American agent is masterly in its detail. The first half of this drily written and consistently entertaining book is set mainly in European captials. The final chapters, where uneasy farce changes to something altogether more sinister, devolve round Staff Headquarters in Washing. Charley String, at the centre of a hurricane that whirls most his his colleagues awasy, finds intelligence requirements controlling his own personal life. In the ambiguous struggle for survival he discovers, not without cost, the nafutre of fidelity. This book can be read on several levels. All of them have the conviction of truth. 167 pp. Plastic protective covering around D/J.
