2.0 out of 5 stars
A rushed spy novel that tries hard...,
By
This review is from: A choice of enemies (Hardcover)
Ted Allbeury's first novel "A Choice of Enemies" feels very rushed, and fails to make us care about the hero, who finds out that his long-lost daughter lives in the Soviet Union, and then falls in love with a Polish spy while in Communist Warsaw, where he is reunited with his daughter. The book goes from the aftermath of WWII, up to the early '70s, where Foltran and COBOL where only known to a select few, and considered high-tech. Anyway, the hero breaks up a complex ring using computers to steal secrets, and in the climax, tries to escape Poland with his lady love. The novel does a decent job at portraying the Poles and Russians as human.
