Color of Night whirls you through the major cities of Europe on an unforgettable journey of revenge. Harry Strand is living a quiet life as an art dealer in Houston. But until four years ago, he was an intelligence agent for the foreign service. His nemesis was Schrade, a ruthless international criminal who arranged the "accident" that killed Harry's wife. Now Harry has met a mysterious, beautiful woman who may have critical information about Schrade. And Harry begins to bait a trap for his enemy.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5David Lindsey has written two types of books. One type is a series about a Houston police detective and the other is like this one. I like the series but these others are so very special. They are like sitting down to a fine meal that looks as wonderful as it tastes with every bite as special an event as the meal itself. Harry Strand had been a spy. His cover had been art dealer. When he retired he turned into a real art dealer. But after several peaceful years, his past comes back to him and he's forced to dip a toe back into the world of intrigue to save himself and those he treasures. It's a great story.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5David Lindsey is a spy story from a different angle. Harry, Ariane, and Claude are all ex-foreign intelligence officers. With the demise of communism and the fall of the Wall, they realize that their way of life will go the way of the Wall, so they make plans to preserve a source of revenue. They very cleverly rip off a very wealthy man in such a manner that he will never know. Claude disappears suddenly and the two remaining discover that their victim has learned the truth and is exacting vengeance. The plot is satisfyingly complicated, integrating a beautiful woman (of course) ex-spies, forged works of art, and two plots that simultaneously lead to attempts to kill the killer. The result is accomplish ed, but with an unexpected conclusion. A real page-turner.
