Accused of membership in the sinister Officer Corps Brotherhood and of masterminding a plot to assassinate his countrys leader, Delchev may in fact be a pawn and his trial all show. But when Foster meets Madame Delchev, the accuseds powerful wife, he suddenly become enmeshed in more life-threatening intrigue than he could have imagined.====http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Ambler====[About the Author]: Eric Ambler is often said to have invented the modern suspense novel.
