The Last Good German
They met before. Their encounter nearly cost Devereaux--code name November--his life. Now, amid a perilously uncertain global thaw, they meet again: America's November Man, an agent without faith, and a defunct East Germany's Double Eagle, an agent without a country.
For Double Eagle, the confrontation is the means to a totalitarian countercoup inside a reunified Germany. For November, it is the only way to halt the devastating blackmail of Rita Macklin, his one love.
Once more, the two long-standing adversaries--and the powers behind them--will try to use each other. And this time, the spy called Double Eagle is determined that the November Man won't survive.

Bill Granger
Bill Granger, was a newspaperman turned novelist whose fiction alternated between international spy thrillers and police procedurals set on the gritty streets of Chicago.
Usually under his own name but sometimes under the pseudonym Joe Gash or Bill Griffiths, Mr. Granger wrote 25 novels, many of which evoked the rougher environs of Chicago and included colorful characters with names like Slim Dingo, Tony Rolls and Jesus X Mohammed.
Mr. Granger’s favorite, and perhaps best-known, book was “Public Murders” (1980), in which the city is in an uproar as a rapist-murderer strikes again and again. Public and political pressure exacts an emotional toll on the tough, foulmouthed detectives investigating the crimes. Public Murders won an Edgar Award from the Mystery Writers of America in 1981.
