The Sinkiang Executive

A rash act by Quiller results in a threatened dismissal from the secret agency he works for -- unless he takes on a near-suicidal mission to fly a small plane into Russia that might be shot down at any moment. Hard-edged adventure and deadly confrontations reveal the darker side of Quiller's work.

"When it comes to espionage fiction, Adam Hall has no peer."
- Eric Van Lustbader, author of "The Ninja"

"Hall has created a new form: the spy thriller that is all action and yet cerebral, a writing feat few can match."
- The Boston Globe

"Fast and tense. Quiller is one of suspense literature's great secret agents!"
- Houston Chronicle

"They don't get any tougher or more intelligent than the Quiller tales."
- Rocky Mountain News

"Quiller is by now a primary reflex."
- Kirkus Reviews

"Tension in a novel is difficult to maintain at a pitch that actually creates a physical impact on the reader. A few of the best writers can do it, and among them is Adam Hall."
- London Times Literary Supplement

"Tense, intelligent, harsh, surprising..."
- The New York Times

(Quiller is) "the greatest survival expert among contemporary secret agents."
- The New York Times
