With \u003cem\u003eFever and Spear\u003c\/em\u003e, Volume One of his unfolding novel \u003cem\u003eYour Face Tomorrow\u003c\/em\u003e, he returns us to the rarified world of Oxford (the delightful setting of \u003cem\u003eAll Souls\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eDark Back of Time\u003c\/em\u003e), while introducing us to territory entirely new—espionage. Our hero, Jaime Deza, separated from his wife in Madrid, is a bit adrift in London until his old friend Sir Peter Wheeler—retired Oxford don and semi-retired master spy—recruits him for a new career in British Intelligence. Deza possesses a rare gift for seeing behind the masks people wear. He is soon observing interviews conducted by Her Majesty's secret service: variously shady international businessmen one day, would-be coup leaders the next. Seductively, this metaphysical thriller explores past, present, and future in the ever-more-perilous 21st century. This compelling and enigmatic tour de force from one of Europe's greatest writers continues with Volume Two, \u003cem\u003eDance and Dream\u003c\/em\u003e.","brand":"New Directions Publishing Corporation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43084837388349,"sku":"9780811217279","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/0838\/9949\/files\/9780811217279_p0.jpg?v=1775248865","url":"https:\/\/www.tatteredcover.com\/products\/9780811217279","provider":"Tattered Cover","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
