Just to prove sometimes I can make a plan and stick to it - after all I only worked out a plan for my next few books yesterday - it can't be that hard for me to stick to something for 24 hours can it... don't answer that.

I have always been a huge John Le Carre fan - I love a bit of a spy thriller to clear the head ocassionally, and I think over the years I've worked my way through a lot of what's on offer - Le Carre (of course), James Fenimore Cooper, Robert Harris (although I'm a bit behind with a couple of his books), Helen MacInnes, Frederick Forsyth, Jack Higgins, Joseph Conrad, Ken Follett, John Buchan, Robert Ludlum, Andy McNab, Somerset Maugham, Len Deighton, Michael Gilbert, Graham Greene, Anthony Price, Daniel Silva, Ross Thomas, Norman Mailer and probably a heap of others I've forgotten now.  Charles McCarry is one author I've missed out on so far - so this should be fun.

BLURB

An unlikely touring party of five friends embark on a road trip to deliver a brand-new Cadillac from Switzerland to the Sudan.  All of them are attached to the UN in Geneva, and all of them are more than they claim to be.

Among the travellers are Kalash el Khatar, a seven-foot-tall Muslim prince; British intelligence agent Nigel Collins and is beautiful half-English, half-Hungarian girlfriend Ilona Bentley; Paul Christopher; and Tadeusz Miernik, a shy and bumbling Polish scientist who just might be the leader of a terrorist cell that could set the Cold War alight.
