The Innocent Bystanders

Set against a backdrop of espionage and betrayal, the story follows British agent John Craig as he pursues a missing Russian scientist across various countries, including America and Turkey. As violence escalates, Craig discovers that he can trust no one but himself. Created by James Mitchell under the pseudonym James Munro, Craig was initially viewed as a successor to James Bond. This novel, first published in 1969 and now back in print after 44 years, is the final installment in the John Craig series.
