The
Man with the President's Mind, 1979. The KGB trains a man to react
like the US president. But to what end is this done - and will he predict
accurately? And where will his loyalties then lie? |
|
Shadow
of Shadows, 1982. A Russian defector is being debriefed, when he suddenly
dries up. James Lawler is brought in to befriend him and find out why
he has stopped talking. This becomes a story of love and betrayal, like
many of Allbeury's books it isn't about action, but about dialogue. |
All
Our Tomorrows, 1982. This is a novel on the lines of Deighton's SS-GB
- what if the Russians took over Great Britain, not by force but by cunning
and political and social ineptitude on the part of the British? |
Codeword
Cromwell, 1983. A group of Germans try to invade Britain, as a spearhead
to start a larger invasion. |
Pay
Any Price, 1983. Two civilians start to have nightmares about having
participated in murder. Boyd of the British SIS starts to investigate
this, but soon finds out he's in deep water and in serious trouble.
Not Allbeury's best, the plot has very many twists and turns and is difficult
to follow in places. |
The
Seeds of Treason, 1986. What happens when the head of MI6's head of
station in Berlin falls in love with the wife of his Russian opposite
number? |
|
The
Line-crosser, 1993. Charlie Foster runs a network into East Berling,

to the East Germans. When the wall goes down, Charlie has information
everyone wants, badly. |
