About the book
Ted Mundy, British soldier's son born 1947 in the shining-new Republic of Pakistan, is friends with Sasha, refugee son of an East German Lutheran pastor. The two men meet first as students in riot-torn West Berlin of the late sixties, again in the grimy looking-glass world of Cold War espionage and in today's world of terror. Originally published.
