Book Description

In this, Bill Granger's 5th "November Man" novel, he has come up with a unique story centering on the white slave trade. Eastern European women are being forcibly used as spys by the Soviets to ensure the safety of family members behind the Iron Curtain. In the last book, "the British Cross", R Section operative Devereaux aka "November" was lured out of retirement to talk to a possible Soviet defector and caused great grief to the Russians. Now an open-ended contract on his life has been issued by the KGB, so Devereaux is being "reprocessed" by the NSA and is hiding out. Desperate to obtain his whereabouts, the Russians find out about his only living relative, a Great-Aunt living in Chicago. After clumsily trying to find out where he is through her, she sends him a letter through Government channels which causes Deveroux to go to Chicago to find out what is going on. While there he stumbles upon a group of desperate refugees, women from Eastern Europe, who in exchange for their freedom in the West have contracted to serve as maids in private homes, laboratories, and offices. Who wrote their contracts? November asks. Whom do they really serve? The answer lies in the links-amoral and paradoxical-between the worlds superpowers. The trail leads to a man in Switzerland who is the key to The Zurich Numbers. With an uneasy alliance between Devereaux and former KGB agent turned unwilling defector, Denisov, they attempt to end the plight of these poor women. With an exciting build up to a rousing conclusion, Bill Granger's unique Anti-Hero does what must be done.
