Bernard Samson, survivor and spy extraordinaire, the star of Len Deighton's two previous best-selling trilogies – Game, Set, and Match and Hook, Line, and Sinker – is back in the dazzling new series Faith, Hope, and Charity.Deighton, dubbed by the New York Times as "a master of the British espionage novel," deftly re-creates the internecine squabbling and self preserving panic that characterized spying in the months before the Berlin Wall crumbled and the Eastern Bloc dissolved.
With Cold War loyalties shifting in the freezing wind, Bernard is forced back into the "game," this time without the moral sureness that evil lies exclusively on the other side of the Iron Curtain. Caught between his job and his ethics, his past and his future, and the two women he loves, trapped in a maze of the section and danger where nothing is what it seems, Samson undertakes a mission that leads from rural Poland to the heart of London Central.
Deighton, with the rare hand of a master, vividly paints the shadowy world of spies and moles, agents and double agents pitted and a war in which physical violence is only the beginning.
