PRAISE FOR SPY'S HONOUR:
'Cunningly crafted, full of action, and it captures
the atmosphere of the time perfectly'

The Daily Telegraph
 
'Told with sly humour and great gusto'
Hampstead and Highgate Express
 
The Italian senator thinks the fledgling British Secret Service
can offer him protection from assassins, an aeroplane for the
Italian army, and the means of fuelling a strike in a Trieste
shipyard. Directed by a revered Khyber Pass veteran, new
boys Captain Matthew Ranklin of the shires and
Conall O'Gilroy of the Irish backstreets are put on the case.
 
Then an insight into the financial world by the glamorous
dollar heiress, Corinna Finn, uncovers a hidden agenda.
O'Gilroy discovers he has been recruited for a flight that
could accidentally change history and Ranklin is forced to
think about the conflicting ambitions of Europe on the brink
of war and whether honourable behaviour and Khyber Pass
rules apply in a Trieste jail.
 
 
Flight from Honour is a thrilling novel of intrigue and
adventure set in the early days of flying and espionage. It
follows Spy's Honour which is available from Coronet.
