About this listen

When disgraced spy Solomon Vine's friend and rival Gabriel Wilde vanishes without trace, it's only Vine who might be able to discover what has happened to him. A single missing file holds the key. That, too, is gone. But its contents, Vine is told, are incendiary.

There were few Wilde could trust. And being one of them appears to have fatal consequences. But as Vine's off-the-books investigation begins to reveal the shocking truth, he realizes there's much more at stake than one man's life and the reputation of the Secret Intelligence Service....

Well structured and put together in a way that doesn't lose the listener. You are drawn into the puzzle completely

Taut, twisty & tense

Really good mysterious opening captures the sentiment. Mid-way through it loses its way a bit and just follows the stereotypes of the genre. By the end we're in Patriot Games territory and that's okay for testosterone fiction but a let-down for an espionage novel.

solid spy yarn

One of the things I like about Le Carre is the pace. Its just so slow. These are much more action packed and quick, but quite ingenious and a good listen. If this had been a Le Carre it would have been twice as long. If Len Dieghton three separate books. But I like both and I like this writer. The main character is a really good vehicle and I will read more, but I dont know if he needs to take himself more seriously or whether he is writing for a shorter attention span.

Anyway. Good spy thriller.

Fast paced Le Carre type page-turner

Gripping, well written and full of nuances which build up nicely to the unexpected finale. So good I listened to it in one go!

Brilliantly written spy thriller

In short, a spy mystery in which the average reader would work out whodunnit long before the supposedly gifted protagonist.

Taut, precise writing that is a credit to the author. I listened avidly to every word and it allowed my imagination to visualise the plausible scenarios. Excellent narration. I will seek out the author and reader again. Well done those involved.

Compelling

An amazing book! Have listened to it multiple times. A cracking story of espionage and mystery.

A must read!!

I thoroughly enjoyed this excellent story & as always, Colin Mace is an excellent narrator.
I did suss the storyline though ... but I guess the reader/listener is supposed to have solved the puzzle before the main character does...? Highly recommend...

Excellent

Good story, but perhaps not as memorable as some other contemporary spy thrillers I’ve read recently. Some good twists and turns although the final twist I saw coming for a while. Good performance

It’s almost a cliche to mention ‘Le Carre’ when talking about modern spy stories but it is fully merited here. The skill of the writing and the twists of the plot are superb as are the very subtle nods towards Le Carre. But is is the themes of loss, betrayal and a forever out of reach redemption that make this such a great book.

The performance is brilliant. No stupid accents just well paced and read with an understanding of the text many the parrots on Audible would do well to emulate. Highly recommended
