When a Russian intelligence officer comes to MI5 with vital information about the imminent cyber-sabotage of an Anglo-American Defense program, he refuses to talk to anyone but Liz Carlyle. But who is he, and what is his connection to the British agent?
At a tracking station in Nevada, U.S. Navy officers watch in horror as one of their unmanned drones plummets out of the sky, and panic spreads through the British and American intelligence services. Is this a Russian plot to disable the West's defenses? Or is the threat coming from elsewhere?
As Liz and her team hunt for a mole inside the Defense Ministry, the trail leads from Geneva to Marseilles and into a labyrinth of international intrigue, in a race against time to stop the Cold War from heating up once again.

Dame Stella Rimington joined the Security Service (MI5) in 1968. During her career she worked in all the main fields of the Service: counter-subversion, counter-espionage, and counter-terrorism. She was appointed director general in 1992, the first woman to hold the post. She has written her autobiography and six previous Liz Carlyle novels. She lives in London and Norfolk, England.
Rimington's best work demonstrates a flair for narrative, with a sense of authenticity and an insider's grasp on the pressing issues of the day. * Washington Post * For a pacy page-turner, she's a safe bet ... Rimington is particularly strong in her accounts of procedure, unsurprisingly, given her past role as Head of MI5. * Independent * Liz Carlyle is an MI5 agent with the traditional thriller-heroine mix of dysfunctional personal life and steely ambition * Daily Telegraph * Rich with authentic details from Rimington's own life as director general of MI5, this is a must-read for fans of contemporary spy fiction * Publishers Weekly *
