Financial-crash espionage with mafia, betrayal, and dread

This is a tense, intelligent thriller for anyone who likes spy fiction that feels uncomfortably close to real life. Le Carré takes the glamour out of espionage and replaces it with murky loyalties, political rot, and ordinary people trapped in something far bigger than themselves. Readers often love how quietly gripping it is, with dread building through conversations, motives, and the sense that nobody is ever fully clean.

Description

In this exquisitely told novel, John le Carré shows us once again his acute understanding of the world we live in and where power really lies. In the wake of the collapse of Lehman Brothers and with Britain on the brink of economic ruin, a young English couple takes a vacation in Antigua. There they meet Dima, a Russian who styles himself the world’s Number One money-launderer and who wants, among other things, a game of tennis. Back in London, the couple is subjected to an interrogation by the British Secret Service who also need their help. Their acquiescence will lead them on a precarious journey through Paris to a safe house in Switzerland, helpless pawns in a game of nations that reveals the unholy alliances between the Russian mafia, the City of London, the government and the competing factions of the British Secret Service.
