Echoes of Celandine

Jay's wife is missing. He's offered four times his usual rate to kill a man called Feather. He dithers. Goes places. Searching for Celandine, dodging his assignment, running into trouble. A contact is killed. Friends blur into foes. More and more it looks like Jay's last job... Echoes of Celandine is a tense, close-knit triumph in which Derek Marlowe deploys highly wrought thriller tactics to X-ray the soul of a man whose cynicism has hardened into an arctic despair Book comes complete with a compliments slip from Penguin which says: With the compliments of Penguin Books Ltd This book will be published on 26 April 1973 We request your co-operation in not publishing any notice or review before the date shown above.
