Showing results for "Lara" in Spies & Politics

In Amberlough City, out of the ashes of revolution, a traitor returns, a political campaign comes to a roaring head, and the people demand justice for crimes past. As a nation struggles to rebuild, who can escape retribution? Amnesty is a smart, decadent, heart-pounding conclusion to Lara Elena Donnelly’s widely praised glam spy trilogy that will have listeners enthralled until the very end.

In a tropical country where shadowy political affairs lurk behind the scenes of its glamorous film industry, three people maneuver inside a high-stakes game of statecraft and espionage: Lillian, a reluctant diplomat serving a fascist nation; Aristide, an expatriate film director running from lost love and a criminal past; and Cordelia, a former cabaret stripper turned legendary revolutionary. Each one harbors dangerous knowledge that can upturn a nation. When their fates collide, machinations are put into play, unexpected alliances are built, and long-held secrets are exposed.

Covert agent Cyril DePaul thinks he's good at keeping secrets, especially from Aristide Makricosta. They suit each other: Aristide turns a blind eye to Cyril's clandestine affairs, and Cyril keeps his lover's moonlighting job as a smuggler under wraps. Cyril participates in a mission that leads to disastrous results, leaving smoke from various political fires smoldering throughout the city. Shielding Aristide from the expected fallout isn't easy, though.

In einem tropischen Land, in dem hinter den Kulissen der glamourösen Filmindustrie dunkle politische Machenschaften lauern, manövrieren drei Menschen durch das gefährliche Spiel der Spionage: Lillian, eine widerwillige Diplomatin im Dienste einer faschistischen Nation, Aristide, ein ausländischer Filmregisseur, der vor einer verlorenen Liebe und einer kriminellen Vergangenheit davonläuft–und Cordelia, eine einstige Kabarett-Stripperin, die sich in eine legendäre Revolutionärin verwandelt hat.

In Lara Elena Donnellys glamourösem Spionagethriller opfert ein Doppelagent all seine Ideale, um seinen Schmuggler-Geliebten zu retten, bevor ein Regierungsputsch ihre dekadente Stadt übernehmen kann.

În 1956, un important autor rus termină o carte, Doctor Jivago, care ar putea să pună Uniunea Sovietică într-o lumină nefavorabilă. Temându-se de puterea ei subversivă, sovieticii hotărăsc să-i blocheze publicarea, dar în restul lumii cartea devine curând un adevărat fenomen. CIA plănuiește să folosească acest roman pentru a înclina în favoarea Statelor Unite balanța de putere a Războiului Rece. Nu va fi ușor, fiindcă există oameni dispuși să moară pentru această carte și spioni gata să omoare pentru ea.

Wer kann der Vergeltung entgehen, während eine Nation um den Wiederaufbau kämpft?
