About This Book

The November Man—a spy for all seasons. "Bill Granger confirms his reputation as an American master of the international-espionage thriller." —The Philadelphia Inquirer

In the depths of a Finnish winter, Deveraux—the November Man—is about to be betrayed . . .


A defecting Russian agent dangles a Gulag prisoner, thought dead for thirty-eight years, in front of the November Man. Suddenly the intelligence forces of the world are locked in a bloody battle, and Deveraux is cut loose by his own people.


From Britain to Ireland to Leningrad, Deveraux and a tough, beautiful reporter slip outside the system to bring the prisoner out—even if it means blowing the lid off the most shocking triple-cross of World War II.

Praise for the November Man novels

"Once again Bill Granger has proved why he's America's best spy novelist." —Ed McBain


"Plenty of suspense . . . the November Man yarns just get better and better." —People

"Mr. Granger has combined Ian Fleming [and] John le Carré in a heady mix . . . He handles all the elements with real virtuosity." —The New York Times Book Review
