Last Call for Blackford Oakes

From the secret corridors of Buckingham Palace to the dungeons of the Kremlin, Blackford “Blackie” Oakes has made a career going where ordinary people can’t—and doing things they’d never dream possible. A charming superspy who made his debut in Saving the Queen (1976), Blackie romps across the battlefields of the Cold War, hobnobbing with Ronald Reagan and rescuing Mikhail Gorbachev while never losing his sense of style. Created by legendary columnist William F. Buckley, this is history told from behind the scenes, where only the cleverest survive.
