Mills
by Manning O’Brine
The central character is a British agent, Mills, who has decided that he’s had enough, and he’s going to quit.

You get this cat-and-mouse chase around Italy and the descriptions of Italy are just majestic. If you read this novel you just feel, ‘My God, I want to get on the plane right now and go to Italy.’
