A Hero of France
With Judson True
Celebrate a legacy in spy fiction with Alan Furst, master of the genre and author of thirteen bestselling books including The Foreign Correspondent, The Spies of Warsaw, Spies of the Balkans and Midnight in Europe. His latest, A Hero of France, is a fast-paced thriller that takes place in the secret hotels, nightclubs and cafes of occupied Paris and the villages of France during the spring of 1941, when Britain was losing the war.
“Though set in a specific place and time, Furst’s books are like Chopin’s nocturnes: timeless, transcendent, universal. One does not so much read them as fall under their spell.”
