Traitor's Kiss

About this book

An English trawler strays into Russian waters. When it returns the captain has a package to deliver to British intelligence. For the next four years a high-ranked Russian naval officer Viktor Archenko passes valuable information to MI6. Suddenly the flow of information stops. His contacts in London know nothing about him but they know that he s under suspicion. The time has come to get him out. But a new breed plays the spy game now: men like Gabriel Locke. They have no interest in irrelevant Cold War sparring or the risk of a scandal. Only one veteran agent realizes that there is much more at stake than one man s life. With this latest tale of intrigue from perhaps today s preeminent writer of espionage fiction readers are faced with a novelistic world that is as duplicitous subtle and as terrifyingly immediate as the headlines the world could wake up to tomorrow morning.
