The Care of Time

The Care of Time

One Monday, Robert Halliday receives a bomb threat in the mail. Two days later, the bomb arrivesâ€”accompanied by an offer of employment from one Karliss Zander, an international fixer. Unless Halliday agrees to help him edit the memoirs of a 19th century Russian terrorist and ghostwrite an exposÃ© of modern terrorist governments, Zander will detonate the bomb. For the sake of self-preservation, Halliday joins the projectâ€”but quickly discovers that Zander requires Â more than mere literary assistance: He and his daughter are in mortal peril from a Middle Eastern terrorist group. Now tangled in this massive international web of danger, Halliday wonders if it wouldnâ€™t have been far less painful if that bomb had just gone off.

The Care of Time, Eric Amblerâ€™s final novel, is a carefully constructed, utterly absorbing story of intrigue and suspense, one of the most acclaimed works of his more than sixty year career.
