Mystery Writers of America Presents Ice Cold: Tales of Intrigue From the Cold War
Deaver Jeffery, Benson Raymond, Finder Joseph, Jance J A
Nuclear brinksmanship. Psychological warfare. Spies, double agents, femme fatales, and dead drops.
The Cold War--a terrifying time when nuclear war between the world's
two superpowers was an ever-present threat, an all-too-real possibility
that could be set off at the touch of a button--provides a chilling
backdrop to this collection of all-new short stories from today's most
celebrated mystery writers.
Bestselling authors Jeffery Deaver
and Raymond Benson--the only American writers to be commissioned to pen
official James Bond novels--have joined forces to bring us twenty
masterful tales of paranoia, espionage, and psychological drama. In
Joseph Finder's "Police Report," the seemingly cut-and-dry case of a
lunatic murderer in rural Massachusetts may have roots in
Soviet-controlled Armenia. In "Miss Bianca" by Sara Paretsky, a young
girl befriends a mouse in a biological warfare laboratory and finds
herself unwittingly caught in an espionage drama. And Deaver's "Comrade
35" offers a unique spin on the assassination of John F. Kennedy--with a
signature twist.
