The best spy novel of all time Publishers Weekly
Its the early 1960s, and the newly built Berlin Wall looms large. British intelligence officer Alec Leamas, caught in its shadow, feels the chill all too keenly: the preceding years have seen nearly every member of his Berlin spy network either murdered or captured. To him, the prospect of a desk job feels more like solace than purgatory. When hes summoned to London by Control, it seems as though hes finally being called home.
Control, however, still has other designs for Leamas: an assignment thats equal parts dangerous and audacious. Leamas will get the chance to come homebut only after hes gone deep undercover as a British turncoat in a bid to get revenge on Hans-Dieter Mundt, the counter-intelligence agent responsible for decimating his web of informants.
One last time, Alec Leamas steps out into the chill of East Berlin.
