City of Gold by Len Deighton
January 1942. Rommels seemingly invincible Afrika Korps is at the gates of Egypt perhaps soon to threaten Cairo itself.‘A superb example of Deighton’s craft’
Robert Harris, Sunday Times
‘Intrigue and suspense… City of Gold is excellent!’ The Times
‘The hallmarks of a Deighton novel are an intricate plot, an easy grasp of detail and a total mastery of storytelling technique’ Sunday Times
‘The pace of the story is compulsive… it is a real pleasure to be swallowed up in Deighton’s description of wartime Cairo’ Daily Telegraph
‘A brilliantly drawn background, a huge cast, and a plot as well-machined as a Bentley's gearbox’ Evening Standard
