Topaz
From the publisher: "On the eve of the Cuban Missile Crisis, American and French intelligence agents are plunged into a maze of Cold War intrigue." USA Today calls him "a master at weaving historical fact and fiction." I haven't read this novel, but loved the two Uris novels I've read.
About the Book
Publisher’s description:
On the eve of the Cuban Missile Crisis, American and French intelligence agents are plunged into a maze of Cold War intrigue
In Paris, 1962, French intelligence chief André Devereaux and NATO intelligence chief Michael Nordstrom have uncovered Soviet plans to ship nuclear arms to Cuba. But when Devereaux reports his findings and nobody acts—and he is targeted in an assassination attempt—he soon realizes he’s tangled in a plot far greater than he first understood. The two agents, along with a small band of Cuban exiles and Soviet defectors, chase leads around the globe in a quest to save NATO, themselves, and perhaps the world itself.
Topaz is a fast-paced but deeply informed thriller.
