Book summary

This spellbinding thriller from Alan Furst opens in Paris on the cusp of World War II, where the air is thick with intrigue and expectation. Foreign correspondent Carlo Weisz is enjoying his life as an independent journalist, but it is not long before he is drawn into an increasingly deceptive world of secret agents and nerve-wracking politics. Suspenseful, romantic, and darkly powerful, THE FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT paints an atmospheric picture of the Italian resistance movement in 1930s Europe.

Publisher Notes


In 1939 Paris, the murders of an Italian political émigré--editor of a clandestine newspaper opposing Italian fascism--and the wife of a French politician by OVRA, Mussolini's secret police, brings new danger to his successor, Carlo Weisz, who finds himself the target of OVRA, MI6, Stalin's NKVD, and Hitler's Gestapo as the war in Europe escalates.
