About this item

From author Lara Elena Donnelly comes a debut spy thriller, Amberlough, where a gay double agent schemes to protect his smuggler lover during the rise of a fascist government coup. Trust no one with anything - especially in Amberlough City.Covert agent Cyril DePaul thinks hes good at keeping secrets, especially from Aristide Makricosta. They suit each other: Aristide turns a blind eye to Cyrils clandestine affairs, and Cyril keeps his lovers moonlighting job as a smuggler under wraps. Cyril participates in a mission that leads to disastrous results, leaving smoke from various political fires smoldering throughout the city. Shielding Aristide from the expected fallout isnt easy, though, for he refuses to let anything - not the crooked city police nor the mounting rage from radical conservatives - dictate his life. Enter streetwise Cordelia Lehane, a top dancer at the Bumble Bee Cabaret and Aristides runner, who could be the key to Cyrils plans - if she can be trusted. As the twinkling lights of nightclub marquees yield to the rising flames of a fascist revolution, these three will struggle to survive using whatever means - and people - necessary. Including each other.
