Description ▲
From dust jacket notes: "If you are one of the hundreds of thousands who already know Eric Ambler's superb 'thrillers' - he hates the word himself, but there is no other convenient designation for these extraordinary tales of undercover plottings and spies at work - you will certainly want this book. If you have not yet read Ambler, you have been missing the man who is absolutely the best in his field. Because, as Alfred Hitchcock points out in his Introduction, Ambler writes first-rate, suspense-filled, exciting stories about entirely credible, decent, very human fellows in tough situations. They are filled with equally credible pictures of the suave political gangsters, disreputable big-business men, and riffraff of the cheap cafes who made life on the political fringes of continental Europe an unpleasant thing for decent fellows to stumble into during the 1930's. You can take Eric Ambler, if you wish, on several levels at once; and on every one of them he is tops...."
