A Losing Game

A sophisticated blackmail operation goes wrong in this classic of crime fiction written by the greatest exponent of the genre.

It is printed on cheap paper which is tanning with age. There is a lean to the binding and there are tears to the edges of the pages and covers which also have folds and creases. This book is not pretty and is sold as a reading copy only and is available for prompt dispatch from the UK. Please make contact with any queries. <br/> <br/> Popular Library paperback

McEwan Ian
THE INNOCENT
N.Y.: Doubleday 1990. Book Club edition near fine in dust jacket lightly rubbed at extremeties. "McEwan's name will be on everyone's lips with his startling new novel an impeccably constructed psychological thriller set in Berlin during the Cold War. Basing his story on an actual but little known incident he tells of the secret tunnel under the Soviet sector which the British and Americans built in 1954 to gain access to the Russians' communication system. The protagonist Leonard Marnham is a 25-year-old naive unsophisticated English post office technician who is astonished and alarmed to find himself involved in a top-secret operation. At the same time that he loses his political innocence Leonard experiences his sexual initiation in a clandestine affair with a German divorcee five years his senior. As his two secret worlds come together events develop into a gruesome nightmare far more macabre than anything McEwan The Child in Time has previously written building to a searing unforgettable scene of surrealist intensity in which Leonard and his lover try to conceal evidence of a murder. Acting to save himself from a prison sentence Leonard desperately performs an act of espionage whose ironic consequences resonate down the years to a twister of an ending. Though its plot rivals any thriller in narrative tension this novel is also a character study--of a young man coming of age in bizarre circumstances and of differences in national character: the gentlemanly Brits all decorum and civility; the brash impatient Americans; the cynical Germans. McEwan's neat tensile prose raises this book to the highest level of the genre." PW. Book Club BCE/BOMC. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Book. Doubleday Hardcover

SPY SHADOW SIGNED COPY
London: UK: Simon & Schuster 1989. 1st ed. Pages age toned with light wrinkling of a few pages else a fine copy in un-clipped dust jacket. SIGNED by Sebastian at the title page ."Sebastian sustains what might have seemed an endangered genre abetted by a last-minute postponement of publication date that allowed him to update the book in light of the political changes in Eastern Europe. The result is an extraordinarily timely and engaging story. James Tristram is an aging secret operative constructed on the George Smiley model--soft of body but sharp of mind. Sent by English spymaster Cornish to aid an uprising against the Polish government and its Russian sponsors Tristram discovers the mission is a ploy. The real plot concocted by Russian Stalinists with the aid of a long-time mole in the British secret service aims to discredit the government of the Gorbachev-like general secretary of the Russian Communist Party. Appalled Tristram sets out on a lonely effort to prevent the destruction of the Polish underground and the discrediting of the reformers." --PW. Signed by Author. 1st Edition. Hard Cover.
