Blood on the Desert / A House in Naples - Peter Rabe
Blood on the Desert
Anthony Wheeler didn't want the job. When Major Pitt called him into the London office, Wheeler was trying to track down his old mentor, Fairchild. It had been Fairchild who had pulled him into the business. Not everyone is cut out to be a spy--Wheeler excelled at it. And Pitt would simply not accept his refusal. Now he is off to Kaden in North Africa, where three Arab chieftains who had been feuding for years are suddenly acting very friendly. Wheeler's mission—find out why. The last person he expects to run into is Fairchild. It is good to see his old friend—so why did it all feel so wrong?
A House in Naples
Charley had a sweet set-up in Naples. He and his partner Joe Lenken run a tight blackmarket operation. But tonight there is trouble and Charley is shot—and worse, he is recognized. Fleeing the police, he has to get his hands on a passport fast. Luck is with him in the form of a dead American drunk. All Charley has to do is get rid of the body. Weighting the body, he lowers it into the Tiber, his body wracked with pain from the bullet wound. But his luck runs out—he is seen! She is standing on the bridge overhead. But instead of crying 'murder' she helps him up the bank and takes him away to tend his wounds. But is she Charley's guardian angel—or the sweet angel of death?
