Dark Star by Alan Furst
It is 1937, and in the back alleys and glittering salons of night time Europe, war is already underway as the Soviet NKVD and the Nazi Gestapo confront each other in a brilliant duel of espionage. Into the fray comes Andre Szara, foreign correspondent for Pravda and spy.
'Imagine discovering an unscreened espionage thriller from the late 1930s, a classic black-and-white movie that captures the murky allegiances and moral ambiguity of Europe on the brink of war. . Nothing can be like watching Casablanca for the first time, but Furst comes closer than anyone has in years.' Time 'The time-frame of the late 1930s on the continent was once the special property of Eric Ambler and Graham Greene: Furst has ventured into their fictional territory and brought out a story that is equally original and engaging.' New York Times 'Espionage oozing from every shadow - writing of a high calibre.' Sunday Express 'Mesmerising.' Sunday Telegraph 'A jewel.' Daily Mail
