The Deadly Affair
Charles Dobbs is a British spy investigating the apparent suicide of Foreign Office official Samuel Fennan. Dobbs supposes that Fennan’s wife, Elsa, a part of a Nazi Germany extermination camp, may have some hints, although other officials desire Dobbs to lose the situation. Thus Dobbs hires a tripping inspector, Mendel, to gently make queries. Dobbs is not in any respect certain because there are lots of anomalies that just can not be clarified. Dobbs is also having difficulty in the home with his estranged spouse, whom he really enjoys, having regular affairs. He is also happy to find an old buddy, Dieter Frey, that he recruited following the war. With the help of a colleague and a retired policeman, Dobbs attempts to piece together precisely who’s the spy and that actually assassinated Fennan.
