Book ID/图书代码: 05380009B33923

English Summary/英文概要: Set in Rome, Sardinia and Istanbul against a backdrop of unrest and burgeoning terrorist movements, FREE COUNTRY is the electrifying sequel to ’retro-cool romp’* Free Agent. Now blackmailed into serving Moscow, ruthless but conflicted British agent Paul Dark must avoid exposure and assassination, and uncover a conspiracy dating back to the early years of the Cold War. Another sweat-soaked Sixties-set spy thriller in the tradition of Len Deighton and Frederick Forsyth.

FREE COUNTRY will be published in hardcover by Simon & Schuster in April 2010. It is the second in a planned series of three novels.

Awards/获奖情况:Praise for FREE AGENT:
“A wholly engrossing and sophisticated spy novel set against a forgotten corner of 20th century history. Fascinating and compelling…”---William Boyd (“情节跌宕起伏、引人入胜,再加上以冷战为背景的背景题材,更是扣人心弦。” --- Williams Boyd)

“Terse, sardonic, and knowing, Free Agent is a take-no-prisoners exploration of loyalty, duplicity and love”---Eric Van Lustbader, author of THE BOURNE SANCTION (“文笔简约却又极富内涵,Free Agent极好的诠释了忠诚、爱与谎言” ---《The Bourne Sanction》作者, Eric Van Lustbader)

“As spare of prose as it is cleverly convoluted of plot. Duns has ingeniously caught both the spirit of an era and the spirit of the books which made that era the golden age of spy fiction”---Telegraph ("极其精彩的故事内容。在杜撰冷战题材的间谍小说方面,杜恩斯将时代主题和文学精髓发挥的淋漓精致。”--- 每日电讯报)

“An entirely original and fascinating take on the classic spy novel in this provocative, fast-paced thriller… a compelling new voice”---Jeff Abbott, author of PANIC and RUN (“原汁原味的间谍小说,经典却扣人心弦。”《PANIC and RUN》作者,Jeff Abbott)

“Deep knowledge of espionage and classic spy novels informs this excellent debut”---Guardia(“碟战知识与小说故事的完美组合。”----英国卫报)
