Perfect for you if...

  • You love Cold War espionage with real historical stakes and British intelligence settings.

  • You find lengthy character-driven spy novels tedious and prefer faster-paced, minimalist thrillers.

  • You want romance or personal drama to be the centre of the story rather than the espionage plot.

About this book

Winter, 1947. Britain's secret services have been compromised, leaving the country vulnerable. Soviet leader Joseph Stalin dispatches his master of 'Special Tasks' to sow chaos, but his true objective is protecting a communist spy embedded within British intelligence—someone with access to atomic bomb secrets. Freya Bentall, a senior MI5 officer, can no longer trust her colleagues. She recruits Cambridge professor Tom Wilde, an outsider whose loyalty is unquestionable, to identify the traitor. Wilde must investigate three main suspects, which requires him to navigate the criminal underworld, infiltrate cultural and artistic circles, and penetrate extreme political factions. As winter deepens and violence escalates, Wilde works to shield those close to him from ruthless adversaries. He understands that any misstep could compromise both national security and his family's safety.
