From the internationally bestselling author and "master of the sly
double- and triple-cross" (Seattle Times), Robert Goddard, The Ends
of the Earth is the third installment of the James Maxted thriller
series, starring a charismatic Royal Fly-ing Corps
veteran-turned-spy. It is 1919, the Treaty of Versailles has been
signed, and a team assembled at Max's behest now anxiously awaits
his arrival in Tokyo. Max had traveled to Paris after the end of
the Great War to investigate the suspicious death of his diplomat
father, Sir Henry Maxted, and was soon plunged into a treacherous
game of cat and mouse with the people behind the murder: German
spymaster Fritz Lemmer and the dark horse of the Japanese
diplomatic contingent, Count Tomura. It is in Japan--the country of
Max's birth, where Sir Henry worked early in his career--that Max
hopes to finally uncover the truth behind his father's de-mise and
take down Lemmer's spy network once and for all. But what Max's
co-hort doesn't know is that his own story seems to have come to an
end in France. Stuck in limbo, the team decides to pursue their
only lead--right into Lemmer's den. Loaded with death threats,
knife fights, a kidnapping or two, and a coded list that has the
power to dismantle whole governmental hierarchies, this is a
masterful work of historical cut-and-thrust that tests the bonds of
family and country to their very limit.
