"In the midst of the fall of France, Bill Quinton is informed he may leave the country if he allows the Bank of France to conceal a fortune in bullion within his 1937 Bentley. The treasure is to finance French resistance abroad, and Quinton must evade not only the Germans but French officials who intend to collaborate with their conquerors. The result is an ingenious obstacle course of violent intrigue as Quinton wends his way across France to Lisbon. Then in a Portugal balanced precariously between the belligerents Quinton attains his final victory and suffers a devastating loss. A meticulously crafted novel that holds fact and might-have-been in close embrace, this is almost cinematic in its pacing." -- Library Journal . First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Near Fine. Book.
