For Arthur Rowe the charity fête was a trip back to childhood, to innocence, a welcome chance to escape the terror of the Blitz, to forget twenty years of his past and a murder. Then he guesses the weight of the cake, and from that moment on he's a hunted man, the target of shadowy killers, on the run and struggling to remember and to find the truth.

Critic reviews

Opening a new book by Graham Greene is like settling into a gran turismo car. Nothing will go wrong
One of the finest writers of any language
Greene was a force beyond his books (Melvyn Bragg)
The most ingenious, inventive and exciting of our novelists
No serious writer of this century has more thoroughly invaded and shaped the public imagination than did Graham Greene

Not much to review - Dated story telling. Felt it never reached a conclusive end and left a lot to the reader to assume? Must have been the author’s first novel? Not the classic Graham Green I have read before?
