Shadowplay is a masterful combination of breathtaking pace and intricate characterisation, which moves from New York to London, via St Tropez and Rome. John Railton is President of the prestigious World News Agency and he is in serious trouble. He is fighting a bitter power struggle against Paul Sellinger, Chief Executive of the corporation with which his agency has just been merged.

Railton runs the gauntlet of murder, sabotage and blackmail to clear his name, only to discover that the real spy may be one of the two women he still loves - his former mistress Seagull, and Nancy, his ex-wife who is married to his deadly rival.
