Synopsis

Cuando la agente Liz Carlyle se dirige a la reunion semanal del servicio de antiterrorismo del MI5 -la agencia de seguridad interna britanica- no puede imaginarse la noticia que va a abrir la manana: el Sindicato Islamico del Terror esta preparando un invisible. El termino ""invisible"" alude a la peor pesadilla de un servicio de inteligencia: un terrorista originario del pais objetivo, que pasa desapercibido y tiene libertad de movimientos. A lo largo de diez anos, Carlyle ha conseguido manejarse y ascender en un mundo masculino. Ahora, debera encauzar una operacion que pondra a prueba toda su experiencia. La amenaza toma forma Incluso puede que Carlyle conozca el punto de entrada del invisible, pero no el objetivo. Cada hora que pasa cuenta, y la intuicion de Liz y su capacidad para ponerse en la piel de sus enemigos son su unica baza. Sera suficiente? Conseguira evitar el desastre? / A terrorist is targeting Britain. And to make matters worse its an invisible--someone traveling under a British passport. Virtually impossible to find before its too late. The job falls to Liz Carlyle, the most resourceful counter terror agent in British intelligence. Tracking down this invisible is a challenge like none she has faced before. It will require all her hard-won experience, to say nothing of her intelligence and courage. Drawing on her own years as Britain's highest-ranking spy, Stella Rimington gives us a story that is smart, tautly drawn, and suspenseful from first to last.

Stella Rimington joined Britain's Security Service (MI5) in 1969. During her nearly thirty-year career she worked in all the main fields of the Service's responsibilities--counter-subversion, counter-espionage, and counter-terrorism--and became successively director of all three branches. Appointed director general of MI5 in 1992, she was the first woman to hold the post and the first director general whose name was publicly announced on appointment. Following her retirement from MI5 in 1996, she became a non-executive director of Marks and Spencer and published her autobiography, Open Secret, in the United Kingdom. She is currently at work on her next novel.
