About this listen

A thriller loaded with international intrigue from mystery master Lawrence Block.

Struggling folksinger Ellen Cameron can't believe her luck. Not only is the State Department sponsoring her trip to West Berlin, but her agent has arranged for her to tour Ireland. It's just the break she needs. And better yet, she's meeting the friendliest and most interesting people on her trip, from a kind priest on the plane to a handsome American studying abroad.

But things - and people - aren't always what they seem, and her European adventure could turn out to be the type of international affair she never imagined.

Author's note: This book was originally published by Lancer Books under the pen name Anne Campbell Clarke, a pseudonym I never used before or since. I'd been engaged to write a romantic espionage novel in the tradition of Helen MacInnes, and chose Ireland as a setting, being familiar with the countryside and with the folk music. I had a good time writing it, but, of course, that's no guarantee you'll have a good time listening to it. But I certainly hope you do.

I found this an interesting story as it brought in snippets of Irish history. I was sorry it finished. The narration was especially good as there were characters with widely different and distinct accents

Had a little trouble figuring this story out at first; there was some action at the beginning, but then a rather long-winded narrative, not helped by the slightly monotone performance. it's not before that last hour or so that the pace picks up, leading to a tumultuous finale.

slow start but gets there in the end
