The Girl from Barcelona

A Franco-era General, with help from al-Qaeda, plans a coup. Funded by a massive slush fund accumulated during Spain's corrupt construction boom, the fascists intend to bring separatist Catalunya to its knees. A young and beautiful Catalan girl, Daniela Balmes, becomes a spy in the jihadist camp - but which side is she working for? Peter Woodbridge's political thriller The Girl from Barcelona, based on the Arabic saying ‘The Enemy of my Enemy is my Friend', skilfully unfolds a tale of mystery, suspense and romance.
