Description: GOODREADS REVIEWS: 
treva (Jun 18, 2014 - 3 of 5 stars) liked it:  Contains a bit of unfortunate casual sexism that mars what is otherwise a lightly entertaining post-war intrigue. The sexism is doubly unfortunate, as there was a certain amount of insightful dialogue between the romantic leads. It's like the author was just on the cusp of becoming a decent human being, and then shrugged his shoulders and took the easy road of the status quo. Come on, bro. Man up.

Renee (Oct 12, 2016 - 4 of 5 stars) really liked it: Picked this bugger up from the shelf (blindly and without a cover)...not suspecting it to be a spy novel until I SAW the cover on goodreads. "Ugh!!", i said to myself! Definitely not a "spy" enthusiast...however..I was pleasantly surprised at how fast I was turning the pages. This made for a nice quick read. The story line itself was well thought out. I read another reader's comment about the sexism in it and I agree but realized it was copyrighted 1951. The ending (well the last couple of pages) was a bit corny. I guess if I found another book written by this author, I would be inclined to pick it up and read it.
