From New York Times bestselling author and the "modern-day master of the genre” (Newsday) Alan Furst comes a taut, suspensful espionage thriller set during the Spanish War—now available from Encore for a great value! New York City, autumn 1938. Gregorio D'Alba, a minor noble descended from the Spanish Bourbons, is awaiting passage on a freighter to Paris after a failed attempt to convince American oil companies to support the Republican side in the Spanish Civil War. In Paris, surrounded by shifting political allegiances and prying spy services, D'Alba does whatever he can to support the Spanish Republic—smuggling, gathering intelligence, running arms. But the stakes quickly escalate when D'Alba, along with the British and the Americans, undertakes a mission to infiltrate the highest levels of the Spanish government, and to determine the alliances of his country and forever alter the course of the coming world war. With his signature gripping, heart-pounding story, this novel confirms Alan Furst's status as "the most talented espionage novelist of our generation” (Vince Flynn).Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.

Rezensionen
Alan Furst's novels have invoked glowing comparisons with Graham Greene for his idiosyncratic recreations of 1930s Europe; Midnight in Europe shows that there is not the slightest diminution in his masterly command Barry Forshaw FINANCIAL TIMES
