    About this ebook

    This novel was conceived in the heated and controversial politics of Britain at the turn of the century. Arthur Granger, an aristocratic and unsuccessful novelist, betrays the ideals he prides himself on for the unrequited love of a young woman. And no ordinary woman, she, but an ethereal, goddess-like, nameless agent from a strange world.

    Joseph Conrad

      I just hope terriorist get any ideas from this book. Although it got heavy with the technical aspects this was a great thriller that I hope never come to be. Enjoy the read, but not in the dark :)
