nice russian atmosphere- seemingly historically accurate- enjoyed the ending but would have liked a plot further separated from the investigator more

Her husband had also defected after being blackmailed by the Russians.

Fast paced action, full of cross and double-cross, red herrings as Kate Henderson, senior MI6 officer tries to work out if a potential Russian defector is offering genuine gold intelligence or if it is all an elaborate bluff. She also has to deal with her husband's infidelity and defection to Moscow, which has badly affected their teenage children. Throw in political intrigue and the historical rivalries between MI6 and MI5 and the author used all his journalism experience to good effect.
