"Walker Dunn had survived a rough life and he was finally easing back into the Georgia mountains, trying to forget. Then an old flame, Leslie Monroe, sought him out in his mountain retreat and pleaded for his help. Someone she insisted, was trying to kill her and it could be her husband, an influential Untied States Senator. Walker couldn't refuse and they began a treacherous mission to save her life that led them into the grips of a political conspiracy and a clash with high powered moneymen on a lush island that ran red with blood."

Previous owner's named inscribed to opening page. The cold war was over, the Berlin Wall down - and a network of Europe's most experienced spies were out of a job. Harry oakham, pensioned off at fifty-two after a lifetime of nerve-wracking danger and the total erosion of his personal life, was bitter at what the Service had done to him. He left with an assumption of good grace, but his plans for the future had already been made and, one by one, he began to contact old colleagues, old enemies, killers and moles he had worked with for years. The plan was brilliant - a syndicate of ruthless professionals up for hire to anyone who could pay the price. What he hadn't reckoned with was Rosa. Rosa Bennet was one of the brightest new talents in the Foreign Office, reeling from a broken marriage and transferred - just briefly - to do a routine check on an old spy. Neither of them wanted their futures changed, neither wanted emotional complications, but once they met things began to go badly wrong - for Harry, for the syndicate, and most of all for Rosa., Corgi, 1993, The Divine Life Society.

Stated First Edition. Near-fine condition. Remainder mark on bottom. NO price clippings. Price inside dustcover: $18.95. 281 pages. NO writing or tears inside book. Tight spine, bright pages. Dustcover shows light wear (NO tears). From Publishers Weekly Cornelisen's love affair with Italy, which has inspired a succession of books ( Women of the Shadows , etc.), began in 1954 when she went to work for the Save the Children Fund in southern Italian villages still devastated by war. A recent Vassar graduate, she planned to study archeology in Rome, a city she affectionately describes here as provincial and shabbily genteel. This leisurely, memorable, affecting memoir measures her transformation from callow tourist to good samaritan who helped establish food distribution centers and nurseries for poor children. She portrays southern Italian women's lives as extremely circumscribed by a rigid, unwritten code. In historical flashbacks we see how the fascist street-spy system was foiled in the villages, and we watch the government bureaucracy of the 1950s stifle creativity and mobility. Copyright 1989 Reed Business Information, Inc. From Library Journal This memoir, by the author of Women of the Shadows (LJ 2/15/76) and other works, describes the author's experiences in Italy in 1954 and her early work there with the Save the Children Fund. Much of the book consists of the experiences of Cornelisen's mentor Giovanna Thompson, who was the organizer of the first fund activities in the Abruzzo region of southern Italy immediately after World War II. The book is filled with humorous (if slightly condescending) anecdotes about southern Italian peasant culture in the postwar years. It is surprisingly cheery and amusing considering one of its main topics is the rampant starvation and disease among children which the fund sought to alleviate, and how they went about doing this. Entertaining light reading for a general audience. - Gwen Grego ry, Adams State Coll. Lib., Alamosa, Col. Copyright 1990 Reed Business Information, Inc.<
