Sobre este artículo
New York: G. P. Putnam's Sons. Fine in Very Good+ dust jacket. 2000. First Edition. Hardcover. Some indentions and wrinkles on cover. . Protected with a removable Brodart cover. Full number line. Debut novel. . 1 x 9.36 x 6.4 Inches. 320 pages. In l943, America thought it had rounded up all the German spies on its soil. It was wrong. Now, Germany's greatest weapon-a woman with special talents, both for tradecraft and for death, is headed home with critical information about the still-developing atomic bomb, and the Allies' chief hope for stopping her is a British agent with agendas of his own. Originally recruited into MI5 to pose as a double agent, he's been telling the Germans that he'd do anything to free his wife, a prisoner of a Polish concentration camp. This happens to be true. The question is: How much would he really do to set her free? Where are his loyalties exactly? As the two spies play cat-and-mouse games across three countries, the ambiguities deepen, each figure showing new sides, each action providing new twists, until at last both agents are swept into a series of climaxes as unpredictable as they are inevitable. .
