Title: Assignment Mara Tirana
First published: 1966
Description: Standing beside Lissa, the girl who had breathed life into his pain-racked body, Adam stared at the tragic, twisted remains of the once-shiny space vehicle which had taken him to the stars. Its streaked, heat-rusted metal, cracked and cratered, made Adam shiver with the memory of his rendezvous with death and his horror of the perils which lay ahead.
He was isolated in a tiny mountain village , surrounded by Communist police. And he could trust only Lissa─the woman who had sacrificed her body to a savage lover in order to save Adam's life.
This was the man they'd sent Durell to find.
