SECRET AGENT THOMAS LIEVEN
WW2.
!!! SCARCE BOOK !!!
The fabulously daring adventures and exquisite cooking recipes of the involuntary secret agent Thomas Lieven.
Driven from his cherished London home by circumstances beyond his control, Thomas Lieven -- ladies man, pacifist and
gourmand -- reluctantly finds himself forced to work as a secret agent for no less than four countries on various fronts
of wartime Europe: England, France, Germany and the United States, before, during and after WWII.
The book includes the recipes of the gourmet meals which Lieven prepares for friend and, sometimes, foe, during his
manifold adventures, and which are a treat entirely in their own right. Just flat out loved this book!
This book is the best book....it combines aspects of the book The Count of Monte Cristo....and the coolest non-spy spy
character Ever.
The story is an ever changing saga of adventures and misadventures that run the gambit of emotions from
Comedy,
hysteria, passion, tragedy, intrigue, clever wits, high class sophistication to the European underbelly across two dozen
European cities. Thomas Levien, is a suave pacifist banker thrown into the blender of WWII, and ends up playing for
half
a dozen different intelligence teams, not by his own choice....a brilliant strategist , a gourmand and an old-world
"ladies" man.
1965.
