Six Days of the Condor

James Grady

His code name is Condor. In the next few days, everyone he trusts will try to kill him…

When Malcolm discovers his CIA colleagues butchered in the blood-spattered office he realises that only an oversight by the assassins has saved his life. He contacts CIA headquarters for help but when an attempted rendevous goes badly wrong he realises that no-one can be trusted. Code-named Condor, Malcolm disappears into the streets of Washington, hoping to evade the killers long enough to unravel the conspiracy – but will that be enough to save his life?

First published in 1974, Six Days of the Condor became an instant classic conspiracy theory thriller. This brand new edition includes an new introduction by James Grady giving details of the circumstances that led to him originally writing the book, what happened subsequently and how he was approached by Hollywood a few years ago to help with a remake – a remake that never happened.

Also included for the first time in print along with the original is the 50 page treatment that Grady produced for that missing movie – a treatment that Grady refers to as a reimagining, entitled condor.net
