The Sinkiang Executive

Agreed with the previous one in general. I think the beginning, the idea that they wanna sack him & the way they coax him into this new mission are actually more interesting than the execution of the mission itself. And it's indeed a pity the reference to the other mission that led to the murder he committed for the girl in Prague isn't among the other stories: for awhile I kept looking for it. Especially a pity, because many references are indeed linked. However, later in Quiller Salamander there'll be a reference to the episode when Quiller killed "for his own reasons".
Quiller on the Russian/Chinese Border
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Not the greatest of the Quiller series but certainly something different. Quiller, facing the sack as a result of exposing the Bureau to hazard finds himself in a Russian MIG, exposed to a Bureau double-agent and facing the wrath of Ferris as the price for his re-admission to the Bureau. My only real criticism of the book is that some of the 'threads' into other (unwritten) stories are not explored and look like they never will be. Quiller saves the day but as usual winds up smelling like something from the local garbage dump. Really enjoyed the opening of this one!
