"A master thriller and a remarkable portrait of a twisted character." --Time

For Arthur Rowe, the trip to the charity fète was a joyful step back into adolescence, a chance to forget the nightmare of the Blitz and the aching guilt of having mercifully murdered his sick wife. He was surviving alone, outside the war, until he happened to win a cake at the fète. From that moment, he is ruthlessly hunted by Nazi agents and finds himself the prey of malign and shadowy forces. This Penguin Classics edition features an introduction by Alan Furst.

Review:
A master thriller and a remarkable portrait of a twisted character. ("Time")
From the Publisher:
A master of storytelling
‘One of the finest writers of any language’ Washington Post

For Arthur Rowe the charity fête was a trip back to childhood, to innocence, a welcome chance to escape the terror of the Blitz, to forget twenty years of his past and a murder... Then he guesses the weight of the cake, and from that moment on he’s a hunted man, the target of shadowy killers, on the run and struggling to remember and to find the truth.

‘No serious writer of this century has more thoroughly invaded and shaped the public imagination than did Graham Greene’ Time

‘Opening a new book by Graham Greene is like settling into a gran turismo car. Nothing will go wrong’ Sunday Times
