Reader's note

Successor to The Spy Who Came in From the Cold, the same atmosphere of ‘chilly hell’ hangs over this intensely gripping thriller of espionage, and the lonely men in the ‘service’ who work and live under the shadow of fear, betrayal, and sudden death. The story centres around a small ‘semi-official’ Intelligence unit in London and a recruited agent in Europe. The agent, Leiser, is a genuine character, cast here for a genuinely tragic role, and movingly delineated by the author. Step by step the suspense builds up to the final crisis, precipitated by a cruelly ironic twist. From its chilly opening at the airport in Finland to its bitter end in a girl’s bedroom in East Germany, John le Carre’s thriller never for a moment lets go its grip on the reader’s throat.
