Julian Lawndsley has renounced his high-flying job in the city for a simpler life running a bookshop in a small English seaside town. But only a couple of months into his new career, Julian’s evening is disrupted by a visitor. Edward, a Polish émigré living in Silverview, the big house on the edge of town, seems to know a lot about Julian’s family and is rather too interested in the inner workings of his modest new enterprise.

Excellent reading
Revisado: 10-28-21
This is a fine, complex book dealing with ordinary people who are involved in relationships that involve espionage in very difficult situations. The narrative is wonderful and the plot is complex. I enjoyed the nuances and the wonderful dialogue. This is - in my opinion the finest work of the late John le Carre. The performance was outstanding

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 368
For almost four desperate years between 1939 and 1943, British and American navies fought a savage, losing battle against German submarine wolf packs. The Allies might never have turned the tide of that historic battle without an intelligence coup. The race to break the German U-boat codes is one of the last great untold stories of World War II.

When a leak is traced back to a small sub-section of SIS, it sparks off security checks, tensions and suspicions - the sort of atmosphere where mistakes could be made. This novel opens up the lonely, isolated, neurotic world of the Secret Service.

Great and timeless read concerning human intelligence activities and the costs of being a defector
Revisado: 12-15-18
This is a classic Cold War writing concerning the choices one makes in serving as an intelligence officer, falling in love with your controlled asset and finally betraying your nation, your country, your family and your class. Very well written and narrated in an excellent fashion. This should be read by intelligence professionals and students of the tradecraft. The Human Factor is an excellent investment.
