• The Spies of Warsaw

• By: Alan Furst
• Narrated by: Daniel Gerroll

Fall of 1937: War is coming to Europe, and French and German intelligence agents are locked in a life-or-death struggle on the espionage battlefield. At the French embassy, the new military attache, Colonel Jean-François Mercier, an honored hero of the war of 1914, is drawn into a world of kidnappings, betrayals and conspiracies within the diplomatic chambers and alleyways of Warsaw.

At the same time, the handsome aristocrat becomes entangled in a passionate love affair with a Polish-Parisian woman, a lawyer for the League of Nations.

Colonel Mercier must work in the shadows, amid an exceptionally dangerous and greedy cast: Colonel Anton Vyborg of Polish military intelligence; The mysterious and complex Dr. Lapp, the high-ranking German officer in Warsaw; Malka and Viktor Rozen, working for the Russian secret service; and Mercier’s brutal and vengeful rival, Major August Voss of the SS counterintelligence force. And many more, some known to Mercier as spies, some never revealed.

The Spies of Warsaw is Furst’s best novel to date – exciting, atmospheric and erotic.

The real deal in gripping spy stories. Lieutenant Colonel Mercier was a complicated but likable man who was highly intelligent and acted as a benevolent handler before World War I in Warsaw. The plot draws him into an ever-tightening circle of intrigue that unexpectedly and completely fits the feel of a true story before the Second World War invasion of Poland. The best thing about Alan Furst’s books, especially this one, is that you’re right in Warsaw and Paris in Springtime, at which point, at that time, every detail, every nuance enriches story.
