This book will make the reader remember the atmosphere of the novel “The Guns of Navarone” and other military action films by Alistair Maclean. Once again, the heroes find themselves in a hostile environment, where mysterious murders take place, where no one is what they seem, and where the ability to walk a tightrope is tantamount to the ability to balance on the edge of the abyss separating good and evil. The novels “Partisans” and “Circus” for the first time are published in full translation.
