Angered that he had been set up by his own Bureau to die as an expedient way of ending his previous mission, Quiller quits. Then a job with DI6 comes along. Quiller heads to Cambodia and is soon being hunted by mysterious assailants. Note: this book is fantastic! It has a tremendously powerful enemy who remains wonderfully in seclusion until the end, building up a mystique and making the final confrontation delectable. This one is an absolute treat.
