Description

Who lives in the giant's shadow? Is it Sam Abbot, an American professor who takes a teaching job in Germany to escape the shadow of a flagging marriage and a flourishing taste for gin-and who soon will be struggling instead to escape with his life?

โ€ข Is it the terrorists and counteragents who operate in the shadow of the massive intelligence agencies in a new Cold War?

โ€ข Is it Abbot's old college friend, the poet Jeremy Sawyer, who moved like a shadow into the Soviet Union eighteen years ago who has a great manuscript that could cast a shadow over-indeed end-glasnost if smuggled out to the West?

โ€ข Is it the ripe young woman or the old professor, or the others caught in contending. shadowy forces who are turning their ancient continent into a violent chessboard and many people into pawns?

The Giant's Shadow is an acutely suspenseful thriller, set in the mysterious, dark, and deadly war of the "two Germanys," worlds where love and murder, patriotism, zealotry, sex and heroism sometimes split like atoms to explode against the quiet countryside.
