Winner of the Crime Writers' Association Gold Dagger Award

Syria, 1970. Michael Howell has kept his family's Middle Eastern business enterprises going through a decade of takeovers, war, and revolution, thanks in part to his office manager, Teresa, who is also his mistress. One late night at the office, they discover men working overtime--producing unauthorized bombs for the Palestine Action Force. Worse, this guerrilla terrorist group is not deterred by their discovery--rather, they will enlist Howell and Teresa's unwilling help in carrying out their plan.

Review:
"A classic."--Alan Furst, The Wall Street Journal

"[A] complex exploration of power, responsibility, and identity in the modern high-tech world. . . . [Ambler's works are] political novels of a high order." --The Washington Post

"A rarity . . . a thriller which compels belief." --The Guardian (London)

"The best book he has written since the war. . . . It's got everything the reader can possibly want . . . beautifully done." --The Observer (London)

"Ambler is, quite simply, the best." --The New Yorker

"Although the Old Master of Intrigue had been writing for more than 35 years when [The Levanter was] first published, he most certainly had not lost his touch."--The New York Times Book Review

"The foremost thriller writer of our time." --Time

"Brilliant. . . . To see [this] ordinary man thrust into an extraordinarily difficult situation and rising to the challenge is one of the most snugly satisfying scenes in fiction." --The New York Times

"Mr. Ambler is a phenomenon!" --Alfred Hitchcock
About the Author:
Eric Ambler was born in London in 1909. Before turning to writing full-time, he worked at an engineering firm, and wrote copy for an advertising agency. His first novel was published in 1936.

In addition to his novels, Ambler wrote a number of screenplays, including A Night to Remember and The Cruel Sea, which won him an Oscar nomination. Eric Ambler died in 1998.
