About this listen

Irina Kusak’s recently divorced husband, Jiri Hrádek, is a high-ranking official in the Czechoslovakian secret police: cruel, ambitious, utterly ruthless. So when he turns a blind eye to her defection to the West, she is uneasy. Aided in her escape by a group of friends, including David Mennery, an American with whom she once had a passionate affair, Irina begins to feel herself truly free. But soon their journey becomes a nightmare. It becomes clear that Hrádek only allowed Irina to defect in order to bait a trap for her father, a world-famous author living in secrecy in the West, but when she refuses to lead Hrádek to his quarry, Irina herself becomes his prime target.

As Hrádek closes in and Irina’s life hangs in the balance, David Mennery is drawn into a desperate fight to protect her and finds himself once more falling deeply in love …

This story starts gently but soon becomes an action-packed thriller, so gripping that you find yourself shouting warnings to the heroes about imminent danger. The narrator is excellent with all the voices – both male and female – and the sound quality is also excellent. This author writes very powerful novels with no sex nor violence nor bad language. The background detail to these stories is very accurate, and the author had real knowledge of espionage.

Excellent
