Beschreibung

The Republic of Night as the sequel of Lying Crying Dying, finds Pascual Rose trying to stay off the radar in Barcelona's back alleys and bars, but to no avail. French intelligence agents find him and make him an offer he can't refuse-identify an old Syrian comrade now working for a sinister Russian conglomerate, for a price. Reluctantly, Pascual heads to Paris, where he finds he is not the only one interested in his quarry; a lovely dissident journalist named Djemila is tailing a general from Algiers, who's meeting with the Russians employing the Syrian target of Pascual's handlers. Soon the pursuers become pursued in chase across the capitals of Europe. Calling on old Israeli adversaries for help, Pascual is forced to confront unpleasant truths about his traveling companion-and trusting wrongly could get him killed.

Autor

Dominic Martell was born in the United States and has spent most of his life there, but he has lived and traveled extensively in Latin America, Europe and the Middle East. He has worked as a teacher and a translator. Lying crying dying is the first of three novels originally published in the 1990s featuring repentant ex-terrorist Pascual March, chronicling his quest for atonement in the chaotic early years of the post-Cold War period. A quarter of a century later, in the transformed landscape of the even more chaotic post-9/11 digitally connected world, Martell began to wonder what had become of Pascual and brought him out of retirement in a new novel, Kill Chain (Dunn Books), the first of Pascual's twenty-first-century misadventures.
