Means to an End by John Rowan Wilson (Hardback 1959)
Means to an End by John Rowan Wilson (Hardback 1959) Doubleday & Company 1959.
Chris Marshall, rather bored with his junior executive job in a big company, is sent to Europe to deal with their affiliated companies. In England he falls in love with Jane, secretary to the rather evasive Gilbertson; but in France he has many reasons to question the suspicious circumstances which surround the suicide of an employee. His interest in the case results in his summary recall to the states where he is reproved for jeopardizing relations with a member firm and he is brushed off and eased out of this particular job. He returns to Europe- to scours the evidence of an undercover traffic to East Germany, believes that he is championing principles -and the dead man's widow- when he goes back to expose his superiors, and resign. But, at the last minute he uses it to advance his own -- until then -unacknowledged ambitions
No Dust jacket, Book clean and tight to spine.
