Howard Hunt, a former CIA officer who drew on his own clandestine experience to craft authentically tense narratives. The novel follows Peter Ward, a seasoned CIA operative thrust into a dangerous assignment that takes him across treacherous international terrain, where betrayal and deception lurk at every turn. Written with the insider authority of a genuine intelligence professional, the story presents a world of double agents, covert operations, and high-stakes political intrigue with remarkable verisimilitude. Taut, fast-paced, and relentlessly suspenseful, it stands as a fine example of mid-twentieth-century spy fiction at its most compelling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48888017551579,"sku":"2026100006648-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/b788d556-2c7e-4e4b-9a4d-941ea1661a73.png?v=1781752974","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100006648-secondhand-hazardous-duty","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
