«Dark Star» is the spy novel by Alan Furst, published by HarperCollins in paperback (400 pages, in English).
Europe, 1937. André Szara, a Pravda correspondent and survivor of pogroms and purges, moves between cheap hotels and elegant salons as war approaches. Among NKVD and Gestapo agents, his only compass is suspicion: in that spy network, any friendship can be a trap and every encounter, a sentence.
Second novel in the Night Soldiers series. Originally published in 1991; this edition is from 1998.
For fans of spy thrillers and European historical fiction of the interwar period.
Alan Furst is an American author of historical spy novels. Furst has been called "an heir to the tradition of Eric Ambler and Graham Greene," whom he cites along with Joseph Roth and Arthur Koestler as important influences. Most of his novels since 1988 have been set just prior to or during the Second World War and he is noted for his successful evocations of Eastern European peoples and places during the period from 1933 to 1944.
