About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin

From the former head of MI5 and bestselling author Stella Rimington comes the heart-stopping second novel featuring MI5 Intelligence Officer Liz Carlyle.


When Intelligence Officer Liz Carlyle learns from one of her agents that suspicious meetings are taking place at an Islamic bookshop, she trusts her instinct that a terrorist cell is at work. Her boss, Charles Wetherby, immediately puts a surveillance operation into place. An attack seems imminent.

So Liz is surprised when Wetherby suddenly takes her off the case. And she’s shocked to hear the reason why: he has received a tip-off that a mole is at work inside British Intelligence. If true, then the potential damage to the Service itself could be immeasurable. Now, as her colleagues scramble to avert a terrorist strike, Liz must find out who the mole is, and what their intentions are, before it is too late.

Critic reviews

A cracking good thriller (Lynn Barber)
Intelligent... Undeniably pacey
This is something rare: the spy novel that prizes authenticity over fabrication
Tense and terrifying
The Security Service background is exceedingly convincing
First class (Douglas Hurd)
All stars
Most relevant
Well written, well narrated and thankfully without the irritating personal lives that so many authors thrust on us. Taut plot and very exciting.

Excellent
