A reluctant writer enters the shadows of espionage
Fair Condition - Covers show heavy marking, and a damaged corner. A shop sticker remains on the back. Pages are excellent.
Travel writer Gabriel Dax is drawn into Cold War intrigue after an interview places him near a dangerous secret. Recruited for a task he barely understands, he moves through a world of surveillance, divided loyalties and hidden motives where seemingly ordinary encounters carry lethal consequences. William Boyd combines elegant characterisation with steadily tightening suspense in a sophisticated spy novel about chance, memory and deception.
