About the Author:
Eric Ambler was born into a family of entertainers and in his early years helped out as a puppeteer. However, he initially chose engineering as a full time career, although this quickly gave way to writing. In World War II he entered the army and looked likely to fight in the line, but was soon after commissioned and ended the war as assistant director of the army film unit and a Lieutenant-Colonel . This experience translated into civilian life and Ambler had a very successful career as a screen writer, receiving an Academy Award for his work on The Cruel Sea in 1953. Many of his own works have been filmed, the most famous probably being Light of Day , filmed as Topkapi under which title it is now published. A recurring theme in Ambler s works is the success of the well meaning, yet somewhat bungling amateur, who triumphs in the face of adversity and hardened professionals.
