NOT SINCE THE MALTESE FALCON HAS AN OBJECT OF DESIRE CAUSED SO MUCH TROUBLE.
1954. Central Africa.
In an intriguing tale of mystery and suspense, Johnny Fedora follows the trail of an archaeological expedition that is not quite what it appears to be.
Fedora’s mission: to recover a hidden object sought after by both the Nazis and British Intelligence – whatever the costs.
As members of the expedition are murdered one by one, Fedora must unravel the true purpose of the expedition before he is its next victim.
In a race for time, Fedora discovers other unknown secrets lying in the deepest corners of the jungle – both ancient and deadly.
Provocative, and utterly unpredictable, Height of Day takes the reader back in time to the post-war era when espionage was a pure game of wits with no computers or gizmos in sight.
