A quick spy thriller taking place in Europe during the cold war. A dignitary is kidnapped and all hell is going to break lose if he isn't recovered/
My recollection is that I enjoyed this less than other Hambledon satories as I found it too grim. I thought I remembered this was a late story written after the death of the series co-author Adelaide Manning but looking at the original publication date (1953) I believe I was mistaken on that point.
Finished this a while ago but forgot to update my status.
