Curtain of Fear

by Dennis Wheatley

Description

Nov´k, a British-born professor of Czech parentage, was a peace-loving man of high, if misguided, ideals. He planned to spend a quiet week-end in London. There, he was unexpectedly called on to make an appalling decision. Having made it he became the helpless plaything of Fate. This is the story of his battle for his beliefs, for his life, and for that of the platinum blonde, Fedora, who got him into all his troubles.

I had high hopes for this spy thriller, but they were sorely dashed by a load of unsubtle, anti-socialist clap trap. I don't object to an author having such views… much, but I prefer not to be repeatedly bludgeoned about the temple by them.
