Description

A high-octane story from the great Eric Ambler of a journalist on the run in the south of France Lucia Bernardi was last seen driving a car at top speed away from a villa - and the body of her murdered Iraqi lover - in Switzerland. Now disgraced journalist Piet Maas has been sent to find her in the south of France. When he does, he must decide whether to get the scoop of his lifetime - or to plunge into ever more dangerous waters with her. Featuring a cast of fraudsters, hitmen and Kurdish revolutionaries, A Kind of Anger is a classic thriller from the father of the genre.

Eric Ambler (1909-98) was born in London to parents who were part-time entertainers. He studied engineering but left college without taking a degree and became a copywriter in the advertising industry. Between 1937 and 1940, he published his great anti-fascist spy thrillers- Uncommon Danger, Epitaph for a Spy, Cause for Alarm, The Mask of Dimitrios, and Journey into Fear. In 1940, he joined the Royal Artillery and was later transferred to the army film unit. After the war he worked as a screenwriter in England and Hollywood and married his second wife, a leading Hollywood producer. Ambler's post-war novels include Passage of Arms, The Light of Day and A Kind of Anger, and his profound influence on the genre has been acknowledged by writers including Graham Greene, Ian Fleming and John le Carre.
