Book description
An innocent enough advertisement, placed by General Maxwell, retired
war hero and beloved squire of Duntisbury Royal, equally innocent hamlet
nestled in the English countryside. But the results are explosive...
Although it seems obvious that the IRA's stars are rising, there's a
more global type of conspiracy in the country air. The CIA and the KGB
are suddenly sniffing around, along with British Intelligence Chief Dr
David Audley - whose intuition for mischief and espionage puts him
right in the midst of the action.
Anthony Price was born in Hertfordshire and educated at
Oxford. His long career in journalism culminated in the editorship of
the Oxford Times. He is the author of 19 novels and has won the
CWA Silver and Gold Daggers.
