About This Item
New York, NY, U.S.A.: Delacorte, 1984. First Edition/First Printing . Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Signed on the title page. Overall, an outstanding copy of this title; it has an owner's fairly brief father's day inscription. Jacket has a few short closed tears. No fading to jacket spine, no remainder spray to book. Very faint, small stain to fore edge pages.
Synopsis
For forty years Western intelligence agents have known a terrible secret: the Russians have a mole--code-named Talbot--inside the CIA. At first Talbot is suspected of killing European agents. Then a street-smart ex-cop uncovers a storm of espionage and murder on the streets of New York, while in a Long Island suburb a civic demonstration against the Russian mission masks a desperate duel of nerves and wits. Engineered by Talbot, a shadow world of suspicion and deceit is spilling onto the streets--leading to a new Soviet weapon and a first-strike war plan threatening the foundations of American government. For the U.S., time is running out. For Talbot, the time is now.
