The Green Train by Herbert Lieberman Novel Dust Jacket 1986 334 pages
International suspense, prophetic as it is utterly gripping. A cast of characters you will never forget in a thriller of extraordinary resonance.
They came together by chance-fifty four random passengers on a train bound from Leningrad to Helsinki. Spanish aristocrats, Manhattan businessmen, Italian lovers, Japanese radicals, British journalists, politically disaffected Americans, idealists and cynics, loners and dreamers-a microcosm of mankind, all with their own reasons for riding the Green Train-until the single overriding reason becomes survival.
Pawns in a global drama, they are detained for seventeen days aboard the train, ostensibly because the Russians insist that one or possibly even two among them are spies. In truth, they are being held as trading leverage for a Russian submarine apprehended in Swedish waters. These passengers, ordinary people, are about to undergo an ordeal requiring superhuman strength and courage. Good or greedy, mad or valiant, young or old-each must play his or her crucial part in a scenario where the full script is denied the actors, and the frightening final curtain has yet to be written.
In the grand tradition of Ship of Fools, with the added immediacy of tomorrow's most stunning headlines, The Green Twin weaves one compelling story after another into a gigantic tapestry of action: tender love affairs and daring escapes, terrifying interrogations and acts of ennobling defiance. Here is a novel whose reach is vast. With The Green Train, Herbert Lieberman has created an amazingly ambitious work that takes its place in the high canon of action/adventure classics.
