Summary
Dr. Ali sends more secrets of the Iranian bomb program to the agency, then panics. He's being followed, but he doesn't know who's onto him, and neither does Pappas. The White House is no help---they're looking for a pretext to attack Tehran. To get his agent out, Pappas turns to a secret British spy team known as "The Increment," whose operatives carry the modern version of the double-O "license to kill." But the real story here is infinitely more complicated than he understands, and to get to the bottom of it he must betray his own country.
The Increment is The Spy Who Came in from the Cold set in Iran, with a dose of Graham Greene's The Human Factor to highlight the subtleties of betrayal.

One of the best narrators that I have heard.
Dick Hill is a fantastic narrator. The book is superb, altogether brilliant entertainment. I look forward to more of Hill.

Really enjoyable and exciting audiobook
I really enjoy books by David Ignatius and The Increment is brought to life very well by the narrator Dick Hill.
The book is about a disillusioned Iranian nuclear scientist who wants to spill the beans on the Iranian nuclear programme and the CIA agent who has to use SIS resources to deal with the matter. No more to say in case I spoil the plot for you.
I recommend this book.

Truly awful narration
I'm trying to be fair, I want to read this book. The subject matter is something I find very intriguing. Or rather, I did.
The problem with this audio book is nothing to do with the story itself. The problem, unsurmountably for me, is one of narration.
The artist used to read this sounds depressed and uninteresting. Believe me, it is contagious. After 2 hours I simply could not concentrate. He has no character, no depth or variation in accents.
Sorry Audible, in all the years I have been with you I think this is only the second book that I feel I have wasted a credit on.
