Description: Watcher in the Shadows Geoffrey Household Little Brown & Company Hardcover 1960 Watchers in the Shadows is the story of a manhunt, of a protracted duel fought out in London and in the countryside of Sussex by two of the most accomplished and deadly intelligence officers to have survived the Second World War. One of them is a Viennese who served in the British Intelligence: the other is a dangerous fanatic who has already murdered three men. Their duel begins ten years after V-E Day and they bring to it every ounce of the cunning and courage on which their lives depend. They are fighting over a woman long dead, yet a new love emerges from their struggle and gives to one of them, the Austrian Count, a powerful incentive to live. The tension in this book would be unbearable were it not for periods of poetic relief. Book is in good condition. Some light shelf wear, some corner/edge wear, a few marks on front and back cover. Ex-Library metal plate on spine. Previous owner wrote their name on the first page. A brown square stain on the first couple of pages see photo #3. A solid reading copy.
