Eric Ambler's A Coffin for Dimitrios. It's supposed to be a great thriller. I am not feeling it. It's one of his pre-WWII novels, which people cite as classics of the genre. Oh well, I am only about a third in. Maybe I will start enjoying it soon.

people who enjoy atmospheric pre-WWII spy stories set in Europe ( and particularly Eastern Europe ) might enjoy novels by Alan Furst ( ie. "Spies of Warsaw ", etc. ) Nobody sets this murky, realistic environment better.
