This review is from: White horse to Banbury Cross (Hardcover)
Chief Superintendent Hockley of New Scotland Yard was warning Edmund Trothe of what he already knew - that two of his former friends in MI5 had penetrated his Anglo-Arabian oil empire.The pair, or the Dirty Double, as Trothe thought of them, had murdered some of his employees. They had turned his company into a domicile for spies. Except for his fiancee, Consuelo, (were they after her too?) there was no one he could trust. And until it was too late, Edmund Trothe did not know how formidable his enemies were - and the enormity of their plans for him and anybody connected! "The most astounding thriller of the year!" "A remarkable espionage novel!" "Edmund Trothe returns to chill and thrill...Llewellyn's books of international intrigue may soon be as eagerly awaited as were Ian Fleming's and those of John LeCarré." "Jam-packed with action, suspense...a spectacular climax...Generates such accelerating interest that it may even appeal to readers who ordinarily do not go in for this sort of thing." "An incendiary finish!" "As entertaining, densely detailed and suspenseful as those adventures with which Richard Llewellyn delighted appreciative readers in "The End of the Rug" and "But We Didn't Get The Fox"." "If there can be any such thing as a scholarly or sophisticated spy story, this is it. At times, the reader is hard-pressed to keep on the pagehe's reading. He can't wait to see what's ahead." |
