Three Great Novels by Alan Furst

Set in the years from 1937 to 1939, these novels paint an unforgettable portrait of a continent on the precipice of war. In THE POLISH OFFICER, Captain Alexander de Milja will become a spymaster in the anti-Nazi underground, posing as a poet, coal merchant and fascist sympathiser. In KINGDOM OF SHADOWS, a Hungarian cavalry officer will trade conspiracies with British spies and SS renegades on the orders of his uncle, a mysterious Count. And in DARK STAR, Andre Szara - a Pravda journalist and survivor of the Polish pogroms - quickly finds himself out of his depth after being sent to retrieve a battered briefcase. Suffused with romance, period detail and haunting tension, these novels show Furst at his inimitable best.
Alan Furst has lived for long periods in France, especially in Paris, and has travelled as a journalist in Eastern Europe and Russia. He has written extensively for ESQUIRE and the INTERNATIONAL HERALD TRIBUNE.
