{"product_id":"taking-liberty-9781504029056","title":"Taking Liberty","description":"In this sprawling novel of suspense and terror, a ruthless professional killer, a disillusioned career spy, and a beautiful Sorbonne professor cross paths with Moscow intelligence. They are all in a race to find the fabled Romanov jewels, smuggled out of Russia a century ago and secreted inside the Statue of Liberty before it was shipped from France to New York. The scene shifts compellingly from the present-day United Nations building to the Czarist Russia of Alexander II, the elegant boulevards of Paris and the sun-drenched Cote d'Azur, and ends in a spectacle of violence at America's shining symbol of freedom standing in New York Harbor. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The international hunt is interwoven with the efforts of Paris-based CIA agent Martin Toberts, his new-found love Solange Cordier who holds a secret more than a hundred years old, and his bloody-minded nemesis Pell Bruckner, a rogue agent intent on only one thing--satisfying his lust for personal wealth--at the expense of anyone or anything that stands in his way. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e It is, finally, a story of staggering wealth secreted in a place no one can believe, causing individuals and nations to kill for it and, in some cases, die for it. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Open Road Distribution\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/26\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781504029056\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 496\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.18lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 1.11d","brand":"Lawrence Dunning","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41574618693813,"sku":"9781504029056","price":16.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_399d0a54-9a42-4714-989e-29c858e1f49c.jpg?v=1643696844","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/taking-liberty-9781504029056","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
