The High Place

Another superbly crafted Middle Eastern adventure by the author of the classic Rogue Male They called the organisation World Opposition. Its aim was a world where the State no longer existed and where the individual controlled their own destiny. Their headquarters were called Kasr-el-Sittat - meaning fortress of the holy women - and their leader was the strange and beautiful Elisa Cantemir. For her, no method was too ruthless, no human life too valuable, compared with the aims of the organisation. Only one man knew their real aims and opposed them. And he was desperately in love with Elisa Cantemir.
