I was interested in the cult book and it was cheap. The author also has a crime fiction series set in London in the 60's which also looks good. Re Semyonov - I thought a bit of Cold War fiction as presented by the other side would be interesting.col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-48530305013790692472015-06-16T00:16:13.532-07:002015-06-16T00:16:13.532-07:00Col, I'm with Margot.

I was tickled by "Spying in Guru Land: Inside Britain's Cults" on account of similar books about Indian godmen and the dubious cults they spawn. The Semyonov book does look interesting. I like Cold War settings.Prashant C.

It's not easy to find that, and I remember it as being a good, solid story - one of the first thrillers I read from a (then) Soviet perspective. I saw that Hiaasen, too :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
