Max Farne knows the Italian Riviera like the back of his hand - better, in fact. He was there during the war, fighting alongside the partisans up in the rugged mountains backing on to the lush coast, and he's spent the last few years buying and selling luxury yachts from the harbour of Santa Margherita. So Farne better than anyone knows that close beneath the shiny, tourist-friendly surface lies extreme violence, ready to errupt at any time.So when the unrefusable offer is made to Max, he isn't wholly surprised. What does surprise him is the sheer scale and bloody ruthlessness of the violence that threatens to overwhelm him...Ted Allbeury was a lieutenant-colonel in the Intelligence Corps during World War II, and later a successful executive in the fields of marketing, advertising and radio, before the publication of his first novel, "A Choice of Enemies", in 1971. He is best-known for his espionage novels. His novels have been published in twenty-three languages, including Russian.
