Against this backdrop of Cold War tension and national identity, Hailey weaves in the story of a Hungarian refugee whose fate becomes entangled with the political machinery of the state, illustrating how personal morality and public duty collide at the highest levels of power. Written with the same meticulous research and dramatic urgency that defines Hailey's best work, the novel presents a sharp, suspenseful portrait of ambition, compromise, and the human cost of political decisions. The tone is taut and authoritative, pulling readers into the corridors of power where careers, consciences, and a nation's sovereignty hang in the balance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48810593911003,"sku":"2026600003001-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/e7019e75-235e-442f-ba84-192e31b3ec16.png?v=1779805714","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026600003001-secondhand-in-high-places","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
