Moscow, 1965. Former Secret Service agent Leo Demidov is forbidden to travel with his wife & daughters to New York as part of a ' Peace Tour', meant to foster better relations between the two Cold War enemies. Leo's natural paranoia reaches its peak: Why have his family been selected? What is being planned? When Leo's worst fears are realised & a tragic murder destroys everything he loves, he demands only one thing: that he is allowed to investigate & find the killer who has struck at the heart of his family. Crippled by grief, his request denied, Leo sees no other option than to take matters into his own hands, thousands of miles from the crime scene. In a surprising, thrilling story that spans decades & continents

Product Description

Nat, a veteran of Britain's Secret Intelligence Service, thinks his years as an agent runner are over. But MI6 have other plans.

To tackle the growing threat from Moscow Centre, Nat is put in charge of The Haven, a defunct substation of London General with a rag-tag band of spies.  His weekly badminton session with the young, introspective, Brexit-hating Ed, offers respite from the new job. But it is Ed, of all unlikely people, who will take Nat down the path of political anger that will ensnare them all.

'A very classy entertainment about political ideals & deception... laced with fury at the senseless vandalism of Brexit & of Trump' – The Guardian
