关于此电子书
This novel of love and espionage in 1950s Italy “plays like a confectionary Hollywood romance with some deeper notes reminiscent of John le Carré” (Publishers Weekly).
Tuscany, 1956. Newlywed American couple Scottie and Michael have arrived in Tuscany with a lot of luggage and some heavy secrets. Scottie has no idea that her husband is a covert CIA operative. Michael has no idea that Scottie is pregnant with someone else’s child. When Scottie’s young Italian teacher disappears, her search for him leads her to some dark truths about herself, her marriage, and her country.
Michael is dedication to saving the world from communism. But he’s starting to realize he’s just a pawn in a much different game. Driven apart by lies, Michael and Scottie must find their way through a maze of history, memory, hate and love to a new kind of complicated truth.
Half glamorous fun, half an examination of America’s role in the world, and filled with sun-dappled pasta lunches, prosecco, charming spies and horse racing, The Italian Party is “dashing, fun, sexy and witty—a fun read on multiple levels” (Historical Novel Society Magazine).
