Reviews

""Deighton keeps the action skimming along through banterish dialogue and rapid changes of scene, winding up in Beirut where, after depicting the fleecing of a global financial wizard, he lets poetic justice reign--by allowing the fleecers to be fleeced...Anyone with a yen for a brisk comic lark will find it here."" -- ""Kirkus Reviews""
