About This Item
New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1985. First Printing, First U.S. Edition. . Hardcover. Fine/Very Good. Gethin's third novel (issued in UK as "Jack Lane's Browning") introduces a new British super-agent. Jack Halloran, 38, thin and balding, and one of only 24 in England possessing an Omega ultra secret Blue Security pass, is given an "unofficial" assignment by Omega's director to investigate the murder of another top agent. Well aware that "unofficial" means there will be no record and not much help, Halloran begins an investigation that becomes more deadly and treacherous each step he takes. Boards and text are clean and unmarked, tight and square, not remaindered. The dustjacket shows only very minimum surface and edge-wear, with a touch of age-toning on the edges of the dj flaps. A collectable copy.
