Meer oor hierdie e-boek
The unlikely hero of The Mask of Dimitrios returns in this “intriguing affair to remember” from the two-time Gold Dagger Award–winning author (Kirkus Reviews, starred review).
Eric Ambler first introduced the world to the historian and novelist Charles Latimer in his classic thriller The Mask of Dimitrios. Now Latimer is back, on assignment from his American publisher, to find out just how the once-frivolous international newspaper Intercom unleashed a major geopolitical scandal.
For Theodore Carter—Intercom’s hapless, hard-drinking editor—everything changed when the journal was taken over by mysterious new owners. Whoever they are, they have access to classified information that they are determined to publish. Soon, agents from the world’s superpowers are circling, and as Latimer and Carter set about uncovering the source of the secrets, they find much more than their careers are on the line.
