A first UK edition hardback. Bumped at head and tail of book spine. Some tanning to pages. The price-clipped dust jacket is showing some signs of wear to the extremities and there is some creasing at the top and bottom edge to match the bumps on the spine.
The ninth book in the Lord Edward Corinth and Verity Browne series.
SYNOPSIS: “In February 1939 it is clear that Britain will soon be at war. Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain’s policy of appeasing Hitler has failed. The nation looks to Winston Churchill whose years in the wilderness, warning of the catastrophe to come are finally over. But MI5 learns that an enemy agent has been dispatched to England to assassinate Churchill. The agent’s identity must be uncovered and Lord Edward Corinth begins inquiries at Cliveden, the Astors’ country house in Buckinghamshire, notorious as the headquarters of those who are prepared to go to any lengths to avert war.”
