"Two men meeting north side of tunnel stop investigate party travelling from south stop ...
"Christmas Eve. The festive season, when family men flock home, and it is easy to feel sorry for oneself - as Morgan Hunter-Brown does, stuck in a freezing-cold Alpine village, on orders from his intelligence bureau.
"In this unusually fine first novel, John Howlett gives us a spy whose dilemma is both dangerous and poignant. Morgan Hunter-Brown, born Italian, raised in England, has lived adrift onb the Continent, and this particular holiday mission takes him back to Italy, where he makes a true friend of fellow agent Giorgio. In the seamy cafes of Genoa they search out the source of an intenational drug network. And when horror and violence usher in the New Year, Morgan's determination to see justice done is further strengthened as he seeks a murderer. " .
