TO LIVE IN DANGER This tense, closely knit story of counter-espionage in Central Europe has all the qualities of a first-class thriller. It is also a story of moral erosion. The narrator, a young Englishman, is sent straight from his suburban home to the Intelligence Corps on the Austro-Yugoslav border. At once he enters an exotic world of spies, smuggling and sex. And at once he begins to change. Like a Greek tragedy the book opens just before its climax and the events leading up to this are then swiftly revealed. Elements which at first seem unconnected - frontier-crossing, interrogations, love affairs - come together in explosive combina­tion. This is Mr Magee’s first novel. His sense of background is completely authentic. The char­acters are genuine and subtly drawn. To Live In Danger is the work of an alert, polished and interesting writer.
