About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

The last time anyone saw Lucia Bernardi, she was driving at top speed away from a Swiss villa - leaving the body of her murdered Iraqi lover behind. Now she has vanished, along with a potentially explosive set of papers, and disgraced journalist Piet Maas has been sent to follow her trail to the South of France. But finding her is just the start of his problems. Soon, amid a cast of con men, secret agents and revolutionaries, he must decide whether to land the scoop of his lifetime - or follow Lucia into ever more dangerous waters.

No blood or machine guns, no Ferraris, yet glamorous and tense in the South of France!

Eric Ambler’s style is wonderful.

Ambler was obviously a very good writer, with a good sense of human behaviour, motivations and desires. This sophisticated novel doesn't disappoint with its twists and turns throughout. Our unlikely hero really does have his work cut out with Lucia. The narration is excellent and well paced. A great listen from start to finish.
