Customer Reviews

Brilliant followup to Stella Marni

This book is hard to review without giving out the secrets of Assignment:Stella Marni. It's a direct followup to that book when a Communist hitman is sent after Sam Durell in revenge for the Marni case. He also has a second target and Sam is forced into a race to Hungary when it's found target #2 has flown home.To make matters worse, Sam's boss has also disappeared behind the Iron Curtain.Good Cold War espionage.
