Über dieses E-Book
________________________
'A thriller with a difference. The plot is as taught as the prose is tight - both qualities reminiscent of Graham Greene' - Sunday Express
'Once you have opened its first page you won't be able to stop reading. A superbly plotted story with a brilliant twist' - A.N. Wilson
'Brian Moore is a man of profound human insight as well as a master storyteller ... the most subtle, most readable, least pushy of guides' - Sunday Telegraph

THE SUPERB THRILLER FROM BRIAN MOORE WHICH INSPIRED THE MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING MICHAEL CAINE AND TILDA SWINTON
________________________
Pierre Brossard is on the run. For his life. From a determined squad of unknown hit-men. From his former 'friends'. From his past. Condemned to death in absentia by French courts for crimes against humanity during the war, he has been in hiding for over forty years. Now, perhaps, justice will be done.
