Aprašymas

Introducing Poland's John le Carré: former spy and bestselling author Vincent V. Severski.

Martin, a former British spy, enjoys a quiet retirement in the Scandinavian wilderness, far from Vauxhall Cross. But his peace is shattered when an active MI6 officer arrives with a macabre photograph and a question. A severed hand bearing a cryptic Cyrillic tattoo has been found in the shipyards of Britain's new nuclear submarines. What does it mean?

The question drags Martin back thirty years to Helsinki, when, as the Soviet Union finally began to crumble, he was sent on a desperate mission to find out the truth behind an alarming provocation, deep beneath the Atlantic's waves...

He was thrown into a shadowy duel between KGB spymasters, MI6 handlers and Finnish counterintelligence, as an old world was giving way to the new, and the global order hung in the balance.

But are the ghosts of a long-ago mission being disturbed? Or is he just an old spook jumping at shadows?

Sweeping from snow-bound Scandinavian wilderness to tense Cold War safehouses, this is an authentic, cerebral and compelling espionage epic.
