Good Book ffom a Good Author

I really enjoyed this book. I know the author has been around for some time but this is the first work of hers I have read. The plot was very good and she really took time to develop the characters. The book keeps a good steady pace throughout. If you are looking for an old cold war spy thriller then this will fit the bill.

The Defector

I enjoyed this book very much. As always Evelyn Anthony comes up with great plots and (the narrator) Carolyn Pickles keeps you interested until the end. The KGB defector leaves his country, his wife and his daughter. He falls in love with the woman agent that is debrieging him. When the agency finds out that they are lovers they make her sign an agreement to never see him again. She then volunteers to go to Russia and bring back his family to England. When in Russia she learns that there is a spy in the group that is to help with the rescue. Read the book to find out what happens to the women he loves and what they have to go through. It'll be worth it.
