 | Pascali's Island by Barry Unsworth
Basil Pascali lives on a small Greek island that, in 1908, is still part of the waning Ottoman Empire. He is a spy in the employ of the Sultan and, for the last 20 years, has filed a report each month on the activities of the local inhabitants and visitors. He becomes friends with Anthony Bowles, an English archaeologist excavating artifacts on the island. Gradually Pascali becomes aware both that the Greeks have found him out and that Bowles is running an elaborate swindle. When Bowles offers to let Pascali in on his plan, Pascali is torn between his need to escape the island and his innate suspicion of strangers. AUTHOR: Barry Unsworth

Ling Cho offers to help his friends make some money--he tells them that if they take his cart of wheat to the market and sell it, hell split the profits with them.

Are they really his friends? AUTHOR: Scott Cook, V. J. Pacilio
