Seller's Description:
John Sposato. Fine in Very Good jacket. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. BOOK: Corners, Boards Bumped; Light Shelf Rub to Boards; Edges Lightly Soiled. DUST JACKET: Lightly Creased; Lightly Scuffed; Lightly Chipped; In Archival Quality Jacket Cover. SYNOPSIS: A brilliant thriller and extraordinary debut, The Cambridge Theorem has already won Tony Cape comparison to John le Carre and Len Deighton. His remarkable story begins when a brilliant but unstable graduate student named Simon Bowles is found hanged in his rooms at Cambridge University. When Detective Sergeant Derek Smailes arrives on the scene, everyone from the college's senior tutor to Bowles's friends seems to agree that the young man's death is an obvious suicide. But as the mildly eccentric Smailes-surely the only British police detective to wear lizard-skin cowboy boots-get deeper into the case, he uncovers some troubling questions. He learns that Bowles, a mathematical genius, had devised a theorem to prove who really killed President Kennedy, and, at the time of his death, was investigating the infamous "Ring of Five, " the Cambridge spy ring recruited by the KGB in the 1930s. Was Bowles on the tail of its unidentified Fifth Man? Bucking cynical superiors who order him off the case, Smailes is quickly drawn into a complex web of intrigue that involves the college's senior tutor, who is an active intelligence officer; its head porter, a man with a suppressed Communist past; a Nobel Laureate physicist; a beautiful American student; and, quite possibly, the Fifth Man himself. Pursued by an elite KGB hit squad, Smailes finds himself alone in the uncharted territory where MI5 and the KGB play out their brutal, desperate games.
