‘Sprightly Maltese Falconesque skulduggery … full of reverses and betrayals’ Kirkus Reviews
Roy Case, ex-Royal Air Force turned cargo pilot, lands in Nicosia to discover that his employers have gone bankrupt. Stranded at a rapidly deteriorating hotel, and assaulted in the street, he realises that the cases clearly marked 'champagne' that he was supposed to be flying to Lebanon actually contain machine guns.
Luckily Case’s old friend Cavitt is around to help, but no sooner are they rid of the guns than they get caught up in a terrorist plot that will draw them in, and start a hunt for a priceless long-lost relic.
