About This Item
The Folio Society, 2013. Very good or better condition. First Folio Society Edition, no slip case. This has been acquired from a collector and is part of a series of special Folio Society publications. They are beautifully bound and presented. Most appear not to have been read and are as new. Unfortunately, most volumes do not have the issued slip cover or case. They would still make a great acquistion for a collector of popular and interesting books in modern English literature.
Synopsis
Josef Vadassy, a Hungarian refugee and language teacher living in France, is enjoying his first break for years in a small hotel on the Riviera. But when he takes his holiday photographs to be developed at a local chemists, he suddenly finds himself mistaken for a Gestapo agent and a charge of espionage is levelled at him. To prove himself innocent to the French police, he must discover which one of his fellow guests at his pension is the real spy. As he desperately tries to uncover the true culprit's identity, Vadassy must risk his job, his safety and everything he holds dear.
