The Saladin Affair: A Robbie Cutler Diplomatic Mystery

"The Saladin Affair is equal parts Graham Greene, John Le Carre, and Ian Fleming, rounded out with a generous dash of Robert M. Parker. Pour a glass of wine and enjoy this timely thriller." Ben Giliberti, former Washington Post Wine Critic

"Having served with Bill Shepard in Viet-Nam, I value his diplomatic skills highly. In The Saladin Affair, his imaginative and accurate depictions of Vienna, Dublin and Riga, which I know well, put you into those cities and the world of high stakes diplomacy." Vernon Penner, former Ambassador to Cape Verde (1986-1990) and Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Consular Affairs.

About the Author
Bill Shepard is a former career diplomat who served in five American Embassies overseas. While assigned to the State Department in Washington, he helped arrange trips on Air Force Two for the Secretary of State. In retirement on Maryland's Eastern Shore, he has created a new mystery genre, the diplomatic mystery, with Robbie Cutler, a young career diplomat, as sleuth. In The Saladin Affair, fourth in the series, a new dimension is added, as Robbie accompanies the new Secretary of State to his European rendezvous with the leaders of six nations - and an Al Qaeda assassination plot.
