ROLL THE CREDITS: A HECTOR LASSITER NOVEL
Book ID/图书代码： 14934115B79586
English Summary/英文概要： World War II: the last good fight. In his own words, novelist Hector Lassiter confides the secret history of his clandestine campaigns in the European theatre and beyond, and his long, bloody battle of wits against a Nazi filmmaker. Aided by a beautiful OSS operative and a two-fisted Irish cop-turned-Army intelligence officer, Hector takes on the impossible mission of smuggling a hard-hunted Jewish orphan from France while pursued by the might of Germany’s occupying army. The high-stakes chase extends from decadent Berlin to occupied France, from post-war Hollywood to the steaming jungles of Brazil. A dazzling fusion of crime fiction and espionage thriller, "Roll the Credits" is also a haunting study of the birth of film noir and the bloody underbelly of cinematic history, with a supporting cast including icons of the Lost Generation and heroes of the French resistance.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 用赫克特•莱斯特的话说，第二次世界大战是最为壮丽的一次战斗，这位小说家坚信，他不仅要和对手在戏剧上作着秘密斗争，还有在这场冗长，血腥的战役中和纳粹的宣传机器斗智斗勇。
受一位美丽的战略情报局特工和一位精壮的爱尔兰警察投身为情报官员的协助，赫克特接手了一项要在法国，从占领军德国手中救下一位将要被诛杀的犹太孤儿的任务。这场风险任务一直从灰暗的柏林延续到被占领的法国，从战后的好莱坞到巴西的热带丛林。(Sandy)
Awards/获奖情况："A writer of truly unique voice, approach, and ambition, Craig McDonald delivers again with "Roll the Credits." Hector Lassiter is a compelling character but also a fascinating forum for McDonald’s historical, social, and artistic observations. For all the wonderful action, slick dialogue, and plot twists McDonald throws at the reader, he’s equally interested in saying something substantial about time and place. Not to be missed." --Michael Koryta
