Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Spy (A Harry Palmer Novel) by Len Deighton

Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Spy (A Harry Palmer Novel) by Len Deighton

Stopped by Barnes & Noble the other day so I'm looking for something to read. I looked over the new Science Fiction section but it seemed to be all swords and sorcery. If there was any hard science fiction in there I didn't see it. So I headed over to Mystery / Thrillers. No Jo Nesbo, and no Michael Dibdin. Okay, I didn't remember Michael's last name exactly, but I knew some of the letters and I didn't find anything. And the I saw this book by Len Deighton and for some reason that name rang a bell. Seems I've read a couple of his books - The Ipcress File and Berlin Game. Don't often buy new books from bookstores. I think this is the second one this year. It's one of the perks of having paid off the mortgage - I can indulge in penny ante whims.

Dornier DO 28 Skyservant

The book starts off with a rendezvous in the middle of the Sahara desert. Business completed, they are picked up by a Dornier DO 28 Skyservant.
