Bright,crisp,clean,sharp-cornered,publisher's original plain black cloth boards with bright,crisp,stamped silver gilt letters to spine/backstrip,and immaculate plain white endpapers.UK,8vo HB+dw/dj,1st edn,13-347pp [paginated] includes preludes,18 chapters; plus [unpaginated] half-title+ title pages,a dedication with acknowledgements to its reverse,an epigram,list of principal characters,a Preludes separator page,and 4pp blanks at the rear of the book.Overall,a really exceptional condition of cleanliness and completeness. What is Group 17? Where is Finland Station? Who is Kutuzov? In London,British Intelligence possesses the ramblings of a dying Russian tank commander,and faulty infra-red pictures of the Russian border stolen from Finnish Intelligence.In Moscow,the KGB has a tape of a mysterious telephone call from a dead civil servant.Kenneth Aubrey, acting on a half despised hunch,connects what he learns from the Russian he interrogates with the fast approaching Helsinki Summit,at which Salt 3 Treaty will be ratified by the American President and the Soviet leader - a treaty to which the Red Army is bitterly opposed.Aubrey despatches agents (code-named Snow Falcon) to Finland, desperately hoping that what they learn from a deserted Lapland village will not threaten the peace of the world. Since April 2013,again in March 2015,and in this year too,the UK Post Office has altered it's Pricing in Proportion template,altering it's prices, weight allowances,dimensions and lowered it's qualifying compensation rates too!
So,please contact seller,for correct,insured shipping/P+p quotes - particularly ALL overseas buyers - BEFORE ordering through the order page!
