Review
"Taut, intricate, and urbane--this BBC/Scotland radio adaptation captures the sound and feel of the British-grey atmosphere and cold war imagery of John le Carre's 1986 masterwork. [...]" * Audio File Magazine * "[...] It's not often that a spy novel can be described as heartbreaking, but that's just how close to the bone and well told this spy story is.[...]" * Audio File Magazine *
