The volumes are in English and the translation was done by Elizabeth Williams. This trilogy is a tense, political spy thriller with an uncertain ending about a man who, unknowingly, becomes involved in a vicious world wide thriller that involves many people in many places. The volume titles are "Decompression," "The Temple of Intelligence," and "The Message." Also enclosed is a three-page promotional sheet from the author and presented to various contacts at the Frankfurt Book Fair with the aim of getting a publisher for this trilogy in other foreign markets, especially the U.
