Reseña del libro "Eye Spy: Four Full Novels (en Inglés)"
Four Incredible, critically-acclaimed novels of espionage and adventure by Jimmy Sangster...two featuring ex-spy John Smith and two featuring secret agent Katy Touchfeather "There's nothing ordinary about this. It's big league intrigue." Kirkus ReviewsTHE SPY KILLER Ex-British spy John Smith is nearly broke, has bad teeth, is lousy in bed, and drinks too much. But he's no fool...and underestimating him would be a fatal mistake. He blackmailed his way out of the secret service years ago and is barely making a living as a London private eye when his ex-wife comes calling and asks him to follow her philandering husband. But that all-too-common job leads to him a deadly web of international espionage, betrayal, and killing. "An exquisite series launch. A tight and often violent tale of intrigue. Spy fiction fans will revel in this dark, witty story." Publishers Weekly"Very astutely plotted, with many surprising twists and a sharp bite" The New York Times This novel was adapted into a feature film starring Robert Horton, Jill St. John and Sebastian Cabot.FOREIGN EXCHANGEEx-British spy John Smith blackmailed his way out of the secret service years ago and is content barely scraping by as a private eye.

Katy is assigned to track down a scientist suspected of selling secrets to the Russians. It's a high-stakes, global escapade that could cost Katy her life."Bubbly, irrepressible... drawn by her breezy, chatty first-person narrative, readers will cheer Katy on as she skates around with flamboyant grace." Publishers Weekly"Sangster's novel may seem like a satire to the uninitiated. But it only takes a few opening pages to realize that it is a genuine spy novel - with a unique, and noticeably unusual female perspective. TOUCHFEATHER presents an entertaining and refreshingly different take on the male-dominated world of spy fiction." Bookgasm"Exhilarating...it's a winner!" Irish TimesTOUCHFEATHER, TOOKaty's assignment is to bring down what appears to be a gold smuggling operation...but it's something far worse and much deadlier. "Jolly & Preposterous Intrigue."
