The Secret Adversary

Rare edition with unique illustrations and elegant classic cream paper.

Asked by a British Intelligence official to find a woman named Jane Finn, who disappeared with sensitive government documents, they soon find that their whimsical idea has drawn them into a complicated web of intrigue, intelligence agents, dubious identities, missing government papers, false clues - and all-too-real danger. Includes unique illustrations
