5.0 out of 5 stars A great spy novel, as good "Eye of the needle", 20 Sep 2007
This review is from: The Key to Rebecca (Paperback)
Although I can not agree that this book is better that the already legendary "Eye of the needle", I must admit that in his second book Ken Follett managed to do as well as in his first. This story takes place in Egypt during WWII and has for hero Alex Wolff, a German spy infiltrated in Cairo in 1942 by a daring raid through Sahara (this is partly inspired by real events - there was such an operation). Fluent in Arabic as well as in English, helped by local Arab sympatizers, Wolff proves to be a particularly dangerous man - information he transmits to Rommel headquarters helps Germans winning a couple of desert battles. Finally, British counter intelligence realises that there must be an undetected spy network somewhere in Cairo or Alexandria and the laborious investigation begins... This book is quite realistic and keeps good suspense until very end. I enjoyed reading it and recommend it warmly. Oh, and in fact, referring to the previous review, it already WAS adapted to cinema, in 1985, with David Soul playing Alex Wolff.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Spy Thriller, 31 Jul 2008
This review is from: The Key to Rebecca (Paperback)
I picked this book up not really knowing what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised and was gripped from the very beginning - I must say the very first line of the story is probably among the most intriguing ever:

"The last camel collapsed at noon."

Great alternate spy/spycatcher chapter format to keep the chase alive and the pages turning, though I'm subtracting a point for some clumsy eroticism. I suppose that the spy thriller genre demands it, but I just cringe and feel like I'm reading Mills & Boone or something.

Otherwise pick up this book and enjoy.
