Review:
`Venus With Pistol' belongs on the same shelf with Mr. Lyall's earlier success, `Midnight Plus One'. There is the same breeziness, the same sure command of action sequences and the same gift of phrase-making. * The New York Times * Lean and literate suspense * Guardian * Very lively and appropriately picturesque * The Kirkus Review * Assault, gunfire and murder mark the art find of the century, 'Venus with Pistol', worth 2,500,000 if genuine. * The New York Times *
About the Author:
Gavin Lyall (1932-2003) lived in Hampstead and enjoyed sailing on the Thames in his motor cruiser. From 1959 to 1962 he was a newspaper reporter and the aviation correspondent for the Sunday Times. His first novel, The Wrong Side of the Sky, was published in 1961, drawing from his personal experiences in the Libyan Desert and in Greece. Lyall left journalism in 1963 to become a full-time author, writing 17 novels before his death in 2003.
