Synopsis
Dieter Hess, an aged spy, is dead, and John Bachelor, his MI5 handler, is in deep, deep trouble. Death has revealed that the deceased had been keeping a secret second bank account—and there’s only ever one reason a spy has a secret second bank account. The question of whether he was a double agent must be resolved, and its answer may undo an entire career’s worth of spy secrets.

Review
Praise for Mick Herron
“Mick Herron never tells a suspense story in the expected way.”
—The New York Times Book Review
“Delightful . . . with a dry humor reminiscent of Greene and Waugh.”
—The Sunday Times, Best Thrillers and Crime Novels of the Past 5 Years
“[A] wickedly clever send-up of the classic British spy novel.”
─Crime Writers' Association
“Masterful . . . Superior entertainment that makes most other novels of suspense appear dull and slow-witted by comparison.”
─Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
"Herron’s remarkable novel has enough suspense, action, and deductive dazzlement to keep genre fans happy. But be warned: these are deep waters, and this is not nodding-off, night-table reading."
─Booklist, Starred Review
