I have written on the books of Malcolm Saville for 20 years now, most of which can be found on line, and will write a retrospective towards the end of the year. Girls Gone By publishers are working their way through Saville titles in paperback and this week brought out an adventure story loosely modelled on James Bond called The Purple Valley, set near Marseilles. Price £13. Experience shows that the print run sells out fairly quickly.
I have written the introduction, introducing the Marston Baines Series and pointing out some of the plot and location details without spoiling things for the new reader. Until this publication, this book was difficult and expensive to source. The first of the series,
Three Towers in Tuscany, can still be obtained from internet traders.
Here are the book details.
