Charles Cumming - A Foreign Country (2nd Hand Paperback)
Synopsis
Winner of the CWA Ian Fleming Steel Dagger 2012 for Best Thriller of the Year.
Selected by the Sunday Times, Sunday Express and the Guardian as Best Thriller.
Six weeks before she is due to become the first female head of MI6, Amelia Levene disappears without a trace.
Disgraced ex-agent Thomas Kell is brought in from the cold with orders to find her - quickly and quietly. The mission offers Kell a way back into the secret world, the only life he's ever known. Tracking her through France and North Africa, Kell embarks on a dangerous voyage, shadowed by foreign intelligence services. This far from home soil, the rules of the game are entirely different - and the consequences worse than anyone imagines.
Perfect for fans of John le Carré, a gripping and suspenseful spy thriller from 'the master of the modern spy thriller' (Mail on Sunday).
