3.0 out of 5 stars
A good espionage story, May 8, 2006
Peter Arundsen is bored with his conventional wife and his respectable job in the city. He hankers after the dangerous days as a spy with the SIS, and cherishes his contacts with other disbanded members of The Firm at regular weekend parties, hosted by their old chief, Philip Wetherby.
But this time the party is overshadowed by news that one of their member, James Dunne, has defected to East Germany. First Arundsen resists Wetherby's request to investigate, but cannot refuse his beautiful and mysterious niece Mary.
As their love affair deepens, Arundsen finds himself in a tangle of treason and intrigue. And caught in a trap where terror and tragedy block every exit, and the woman he loves is the bait...
The good old days of the Cold War revisited. An excellent reading by Sean Barrett makes this audiobook quite enjoyable.
