Critics Review

Deighton’s longest, most complex and passionate novel in years: an epic tale, set in a South American jungle, of good men and women crushed beneath the heel of Realpolitik.

Deighton’s longest, most complex and passionate novel in years: an epic tale, set in a South American jungle, of good men and women crushed beneath the heel of Realpolitik. * Kirkus Review *
You will be hooked from the first chapter and enjoy every line … The Berlin Wall may have tumbled, destroying overnight a whole spy cottage industry, but as the dust settles Len Deighton rises like the phoenix … a superb novel. – Bryan Forbes * Sunday Express *
