The Levanter by Eric Ambler
Life is sweet for Levantine Michael Howell - an apolitical mongrel of Armenian, Lebanese, Greek Cypriot, Syrian and fractionally British' blood possessing profitable business throughout the Middle East - until on night in Damascus when he discovers that his factories have become the clandestine opertaions base of the Palestinian Action Force. The PAF, a fanatical terrorist organisation devoted to the destruction of Israel, is the last squatter anyone would want to find inhabiting their business concerns - anyone except Howell, programmed to survive and ready to act.'
In a career spanning over sixty years, Eric Ambler wrote nineteen novels and was awarded the Crime Writers' Association Gold Dagger Award for Passage of Arms in 1960. He was married to Joan Harrison, who wrote or co-wrote many of Alfred Hitchcock's screenplays - in fact Hitchcock organized their wedding. Eric Ambler died in London in October 1998.
