Description

"Murderer,drug-pedlar,white slaver - in twenty years,in many countries Dimitrios Makropoulos had been them all. He died as he had lived - violently" A chance encounter with a Turkish colonel with a penchant for British crime novels leads mystery writer Charles Latimer into a world of sinister political and criminal maneuvers throughout the Balkans in the years between the world wars. Hoping that the career of the notorious Dimitrios, whose body has been identified in an Istanbul morgue, will inspire a plot for his next novel, Latimer soon finds himself caught up in a shadowy web of assassination, espionage, drugs, and treachery.A classic by a master story teller. [UK title "A Mask Coffin for Dimitrios']
