About this listen
Perfect for fans of John le Carré, a gripping and suspenseful spy thriller from ‘the master of the modern spy thriller’ (Mail on Sunday)
Hard-up Russia expert Dr Sam Gaddis finally has a lead for the book that could solve all his career problems. But the story of a lifetime becomes an obsession that could kill him.
When his source is found dead, Gaddis is alone on the trail of the Cold War’s deadliest secret: the undiscovered sixth member of the infamous Cambridge spy ring.
Suddenly threatened at every step and caught between two beautiful women, both with access to crucial evidence, Sam cannot trust anyone.
To get his life back, he must chase shadows through Europe’s corridors of power. But the bigger the lie, the more ruthlessly the truth is kept buried…
‘In the first rank of the new generation of espionage writers’ The Times
‘An utterly absorbing and compelling novel. A brilliant re-imagining of events surrounding the notorious Cambridge spy-ring’ William Boyd, bestselling author of Restless
‘Classy … an assured and richly enjoyable thriller’ Sunday Times
‘Delicate and supremely controlled, this is a spy story to be savoured, not rushed’ Daily Mail
‘None of the new generation of spy writers lives up to the standard set by Deighton, Forsyth and Le Carré. Enter Cumming, a long-awaited light at the end of a very long tunnel … As good as Le Carré – praise indeed’ Guardian

Enthralling
This is a good spy novel. The protagonist is not a spy and makes all sorts of errors that both put him in the way of and keep him out of danger. It’s really well written and read. I was gripped.

Well this guy is certainly the new le carre
Without wanting to sound like a cliche. This is every bit as good as le Carre.
It is more modern and better than Carre's newer stuff.
the pacing and style are roughly the same. Although a bit more action. The same attitude to life and Britishness etc etc.
The reader is excellent.
Can't fault it.

Don't miss this.
Sit back and enjoy shouting at the characters as you would a tv show, it has colour.

Opening a big can of worms.
A historical lecturer and expert on Russian history is down on his luck financially. Then a sequence of events lands a scoop for a new historical book. He has opened Pandora's box and flung into a world of espionage, murder and deceit. A great spy story. I recommend highly to any fan for spook reading tales.

But!
Like the rest beautifully written, superbly narrated and very apt for our time but I believe the definition of stupid is to keep making the same mistake time after time even after being told repeatedly !
Wow he’s stupid and consequently very annoying.
