Cairo Mon Amour (The Siranoush Trilogy, #1) (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

October, 1973: Egypt is bracing for war. Cairo private investigator Pierre Farag is tidying up old cases and calling in debts when he stumbles on a plot to murder the notorious film star Zouzou Paris, his childhood sweetheart. At the same time, former British intelligence agents Mark Bellamy and Lucy Vickers are recalled to duty in Cairo to arrange the defection of a Soviet diplomat. As the outbreak of war approaches, Pierre, Lucy, Zouzou and Mark find themselves at the centre of a cynical diplomatic plot that will irrevocably change the course of their lives, and possibly the outcome of the war. Cairo Mon Amour is a gripping thriller and a poignant love story, based on the real-life deception campaign by the Egyptian intelligence services to conceal the date of the attack on Sinai. Espionage fans will be enthralled by Stuart Campbell's evocation of Cairo during the Yom Kippur War. Cairo Mon Amour is the first novel of the Siranoush Trilogy.

Autor

Stuart Campbell began writing fiction in the eighties, but was diverted by the need to earn a living. After exiting the world of academia he restarted his affair with writing fiction in 2011.
Stuart's latest novel The True History of Jude is a genre-defying work that blends a dystopian thriller with a coming of age tale and a time-shift love story.
His Siranoush Trilogy includes the novels Cairo Mon Amour, Bury me in Valletta, and The Sunset Assassin. The three stories are stand-alone episodes in the tribulations of reluctant British spies Pierre Farag and his wife Zouzou Paris. The couple are exiled from Cairo to London in 1973, and then to Malta in 1975, ending their quest for freedom and anonymity in the northern Australian tropics in 1978.
In Stuart's An Englishman's Guide to Infidelity, a respectable Home Counties couple dabble in petty crime as they try to enliven a failing marriage. But a figure from the past tips them into a double murder plot. Could they really be killers?
Stuart was formerly a Professor of Linguistics and a Pro Vice Chancellor at Western Sydney University. He has published numerous books, chapters and research articles in the areas of translation studies and Arabic linguistics. Stuart holds the title of Emeritus Professor.
Born in London, Stuart has lived in Sydney since the seventies.
