โฆ Synopsis
Callan's days with the Section were over. Anything โ even back-breaking roadwork โ seemed better than the continual threat of violence and death. But that couldn't last. The mysterious Dr Blythe โ the urbane dentist with more than a passing interest in Greek wine and Greek boys โ wanted to contact him with a proposition. Soon Callan and the faithful, odoriferous Lonely were on their way to Crete ; the objective was kidnapping . . . or liberation. But he left death behind him in London, only to find it waiting for him in Crete: there were enough unanswered questions and divided loyalties to destroy all the best-laid plans. Why had someone thrown a petrol bomb at an apparently innocent Greek restaurant ? Who was paying Nutter Bradley ? Why had Sophie Kallonaki gone to the K.G.B. Headquarters in Moscow ? And what was Hunter really up to? Before he found out, Callan wished that he was back with the road gang.
