A review by adee
City of Gold by Len Deighton
3.0
A solid three and a half stars.
The British have their backs to the wall in the deserts of North Africa as Rommel drives relentlessly towards Cairo, the seat of British power on the continent.
Rommel seems to know British plans and a desperate hunt for the mole begins.
Not my favourite Deighton (‘Bomber’, Goodbye Mickey Mouse’ and his soy trilogies top my list), but an enjoyable read all the same.
