From a hidden enclave in the maze of Tehran, an Iranian scientist who calls himself "Dr. Ali" sends an encrypted message to the CIA. It falls to Harry Pappas to decide if it's for real.

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.

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.

Really enjoyable and exciting audiobook

Un poco lento el comienzo, cuando arranca es muy bueno y entra en mucho detalle del mundo de la inteligencia militar de la cia y el mi6. En general muy entretenido

Muy bueno

Someone needed to tell Ignatius that British people don't constantly use phrases like old boy and toodle-pip... A thriller about Iranian nuclear weapon development was a good idea, but this is a low-wattage effort. The reader is perhaps above average for the genre, but no attempt whatsoever is made to produce accurate Iranian accents, which seems to me both lazy and patronizing.

Middling quality Ignatius

Dick Hill is a fantastic narrator. The book is superb, altogether brilliant entertainment. I look forward to more of Hill.

One of the best narrators that I have heard.
