Review: "Paris. Autumn, 1941. In a shabby hotel off the place Clichy, the course of the French resistance is about to change. German tanks are rolling toward Moscow. Stalin has issued a decree: all partisan operatives are to strike behind enemy lines - from Kiev to Brittany."--BOOK JACKET."Set in the back streets of Paris and deep in occupied France, Red Gold moves with quiet and pervasive menace as predators from the dark edge of the war - arms dealers, lawyers, spies, and assassins - emerge from the shadows of the Parisian underworld."--BOOK JACKET."In their midst is Jean Casson, once a producer of gangster films, now living on a few francs a day and hunted by the Gestapo. As the German occupation tightens, Casson is drawn into an ill-fated mission: running guns to combat units of the French Communist party. Their NKVD contact, a former Comintern operative named Weiss - his seventeenth name - begins to orchestrate a series of attacks against the Germans. Reprisals are brutal. Fear spreads through the city.At last the real resistance has begun."--BOOK JACKET.
