the former German spymaster,
now rebuilding his spy network
in the service of a new, more
sinister cause. In the days and
weeks ahead, the quest Max
embarked on in Paris will reach
its dizzying end at Tomura’s cas-
tle in the mountains of Honshu -
and the full truth of what
occurred years before will final-
ly be laid bare.
Goddard is an English novel-
ist. His first book was “Past
Caring,” published in 1986, and
he has written 25 more novels
since then. He was awarded the
Edgar Award for “Long Time
Coming” in 2011.
Goddard’s thrillers, spy nov-
els, and mysteries are fast paced,
well plotted, and cover history
from the 18th to the 21st centu-
ry.
Goddard describes why he
writes the kinds of books he
writes.
“Tightly plotted mystery
thrillers suited my writing per-
sonality from the first. I’m sure
a light romantic comedy in my
hands would soon take a turn for
the dark and devious. It’s all
about how my imagination
works,” Goddard said. “One of
the things I most enjoy about
this kind of book is the potential
for loading the plot with twists
and surprises, not just for the
Book Review
“The Ends of the Earth” by
Robert Goddard
“The Ends of the Earth” by
Robert Goddard is the third
book in “The Wide World” trilo-
gy. The previous two titles were
“The Ways of the World” and
“The Corners of the Globe.”
The books take place in 1919
and start at the Paris Peace
Conference after the end of
World War I. James “Max”
Maxted is the son of Sir Henry
Maxted, who is a member of the
diplomatic delegation at the
conference.
In the first book, Sir Henry is
found murdered and Max
resolves to find out how and
why his father died. In the sec-
ond book, Max goes undercover
in the German secret service to
locate a missing document, in an
attempt to discover more about
his father’s activities. The mis-
sion seemingly ends in failure
and Max’s death.
In “The Ends of the Earth,”
the final book, the trail Max
uncovered leads to Japan and a
mysterious prisoner held by Sir
Henry Maxted’s old enemy,
Count Tomura.
Unaware of Max’s fate, the
team he has recruited to finish
the job are already in Japan,
where their paths cross that of
