In the world of espionage thrillers, Alan Furst is in a class of
his own
*William Boyd*
One of the best novels of the year... brilliant
*Robert Harris on Spies of the Balkans*
Furst's characters have the foibles, frailties and fears of
humanity under pressure... I cannot wait for my next Furst
*Independent*
The writing in Mission to Paris, sentence after sentence, page
after page, is dazzling. If you are a John Le Carré fan, this is
definitely a novel for you
*James Patterson*
As delicately crafted as John le Carré at the start of his George
Smiley years, it is a delight from first page to last... Seductive,
unexpectedly sexy... it's told with an elegance that reverberates
long after it's finished: it is quite superb
*Daily Mail on Spies of the Balkans*
I am a huge fan of Alan Furst. Furst is the best in the business --
the most talented espionage novelist of our generation
*Vince Flynn*
A pacy read with plenty of intrigue and glamour.
*TELEGRAPH & ARGUS*
A pacy, atmospheric spy story in the typical Furst style.
