The World at Night

Alan Furst

'A wonderfully evocative picture of wartime Paris and the moral maze of resistance' Mail on Sunday

*

Author Q&A

  

Paris 1940. The civilised, upper-class life of film producer Jean Casson ends with the German occupation of the city. Out of money and almost out of luck, Casson attempts to work with a German film company but finds himself drawn into the dark world of espionage and double agents. More used to evading jealous husbands than the secret police, Casson becomes a reluctant spy, torn between honour, patriotism, love and survival.
