Leamas a spy is asked to do one more mission even though he wants to come in from the cold. He wants to stop working alone and without a safety net. He agrees to do one more mission.

Going to Germany he gives false information. Eventually he finds himself in court. After the trial he goes free and tried to get out of germany.

Readers who enjoy a thrilling suspense filled adventure where soys play a deadly game of cat and mouse.

The suspense of not knowing who was trustworthy and who was actually telling the truth coupled together meaning the difference between life and death.

I had to concentrate more than usual to keep track of who was who and what they were doing.

It would be helpful for me to read this book again, but I probably will wait a while before I consider reading it a second time.

I could feel the tension, stress, and fear of the characters. Wondering who would survive kept me interested and at the edge of my seat. I felt like I was in the mission.

I gradually became accustomed to the writing style of the author. I was interested in the characters. This book has a good plot loosely based on cold war events and is presented in a fictional manner.

This fictional book is a good way to learn about cold war spies and events in a realistic was without reading a history book on this subject.

If a reader wants to read something easy and light hearted this is not a good choice, but for some it is an adventure into the world of spies and spying.

There is a lot of information written in conversational form. The narratives are detailed. The characters and all other aspects of the story are believable.
