"A Romantic Novel of Espionage" - "This is a book of modern day espionage and counter-espionage set in Spain. an international conclave of the world's Spanish-speaking countries has been planned for Madrid and Russian agents have plans afoot to disrupt the meeting by arranging the assassination of the leading Latin American statesman and placing the blame on the United States. A relatively minor American diplomat has bee suborned to do the job, but, when he learns that the plan is to kill him also, he flees to New York. He is followed, killed and his easily recognizable signet ring is clipped from his finger for shipment back to Spain, where it can be put on the finger of another assassin, whose only identity after the murder will be the ring. Thus the rung becomes the central object of attention. A young American boy and his attractive escort become enmeshed in the attempt to get the ring back to Madrid and onto the hand of the newly selected assassin. There are big things at stake and in this shadow world of the spy and counter-spy, human live is not as valuable as the ring. The cold-blooded killings, and kidnappings, that result are somewhat balanced by the warmth of the love affair that manages to survive the carnage. This is fine fare indeed for those who enjoy Gavin Lyall, John Le Carré, Burke Wilkinson and Eric Ambler." Listing updated 1-19-2008.
