McCarry, Charles The Secret Lovers
Hardcover: 1977 E. P. Dutton, NYC 2nd printing 0525199349 / 9780525199342 Book: Very Good. DJ: Fair. DJ intact but chipped and torn along edges, especially at spine. Now preserved in Brodart cover. No price stated and there is a book club number on the back DJ along with the ISBN. Shipping weight 560 (grams). The Christopher family of spies - 3. A nervous courier delivers the handwritten manuscript of a dissident Russian novel to Paul Christopher early one morning in West Berlin. Minutes after the handoff, the courier’s spine is neatly snapped by an impact with a passing black sedan. Meanwhile in Rome, Christopher’s wife Cathy takes a famous film director as a lover to stir her husband out of the stoicism that defines his personality. These two seemingly discrete events set in motion a spiral of operational and personal intrigue that leads Christopher from meetings with an aging agent in the cafes of old Europe to a rendezvous with an operative on the front lines of the Cold War in the Congo as he secretly arranges the publication of a novel that could bring the Soviet system to its knees and races to identify the leak that compromised the messenger--and possibly his entire mission. 'The Secret Lovers' is McCarry at his best--an exploration of the epic scope of 'the great game,' but also a riveting psychological portrait of a man ensnared by a profession that never failed to exert its insidious influence outside the professional boundaries that, like the facade of diplomacy that outwardly held the Cold War in check, could never contain its violence essence. Since his reemergence with the publication of 'Old Boys', Charles McCarry has been once again heralded as one of the select few espionage novelists who manages to break out of his genre to shine as a brilliant novelist in his own right.
