A pretty good story, but a little too long.

Nick and his two companions go to a great deal of trouble to figure out who is killing C I A people all over the world and then get rid of them.

A fast-paced thriller set mainly in Cold War Berlin, a period and place this author got to know at first-hand.

A fairly decent spy novel. Set during the Cold War, American operatives are being assassinated, and the usual, soul weary agent has to stop the killings. Of course, a beautiful double agent, the reason the guy is so soul weary, is involved.

Not bad, but no real surprises, either.
