The Russians want Peter Carlin for his top secret weapons plans. The British want him for the murder of his wife - a crime he didn’t commit. Now he must find a way to flee Soviet Russia and return home to find the real killer - without being killed or arrested on the way. But he may not be prepared for the shocking truth he will discover about his wife’s tragic demise ...John Blackburn’s fourth novel, Dead Man Running (1960), is a gripping Cold War thriller that will have readers on the edge of their seats.'Swift, sure, and exciting ... harrowing escapes, devious characters, black villainy and a friend in need make an absorbing book.' - Boston Sunday Herald'A neat little package of horror - beautifully sustained ... frighteningly realistic. Don’t start reading too late in the evening, especially if you’re alone.' - San Francisco Examiner'Blackburn’s choicest work of contemporary horror ... a frontrunner in the mystery field and well worth the hour or two it takes to read it.' - Pensacola News Journal
