The setting is 1950s London, at the height of the Cold War. Kit Fournier is ostensibly a senior diplomat at the US embassy in Grosvenor Square, but is actually CIA bureau chief in London. The Arms Race informs much of the action in this fast-paced story which sees Kit go undercover to meet a dissident KGB agent, lose a loved one, have a crisis of soul and get blackmailed into becoming a double agent for M16....

Clever convoluted plot. Some is guessable but later found to have another layer. Very well worth listening to.
Very well read, good accents, range of voices etc.,

Clever, Devious, Well Wrought, Ultimately Sad

Interesting and engaging until the end, when it became almost silly. It’s as if the author wrote 4/5ths of the book, couldn’t think of an ending and put it in a drawer for two years before returning to finish it without reading a word of what he’d written previously. Still, well written and (mostly) atmospheric.

Good start, poor finish

The story was okay. Still not quite sure what was motivating the main character. Overall it was okay and probably raised a little by the quality of the narrator.

very well and consistently narrated

A well written insight into the machinations of the US secret service and its personnel as it operated in London during the years of the UK attempt to develop its own nuclear defence system, the Buster Crabbe affair and the lead up to the attack on Egypt known as the Suez crisis.

John Le Carre fans will enjoy this.

Wonderful book, well narrated. I enjoyed it so much I listened to it in one day and I’ve just bought 3 more by Edward Wilson with Richard Attlee narrating them. I hope The Catesby series is as good. 5 stars from me and I thoroughly recommend it
