A BERNARD SAMSON NOVEL
'The master of espionage writing at his brilliant best' Mail on Sunday
With the Cold War drawing to a close in the East, Bernard Samson is still haunted by the events that have turned his life upside down over the last ten years. But when he takes a train from Moscow to Berlin, he stumbles across a clue that may lead him to the truth at last - even though, in finding the answers, he could lose everything. Bringing the 'Faith, Hope and Charity' trilogy, and Bernard Samson's story, to a stunning conclusion, this final volume brilliantly shows the human cost of the spying game.
'The series represents a magnificent achievement in the field of espionage writing and Samson remains one of the great spies' Irish Times

MEDIA REVIEWS
Here is the master of espionage writing at his brilliant best. - Mail on Sunday
Deighton's prose is tough, clean and compelling ... storytelling of this high quality will never go out of fashion. - Sunday Express
Like the vintage Bentley, Deighton's prose runs extremely smoothly. - Times Literary Supplement
Deighton's outstanding achievement is the nine-volume series chronicling the life and times of Bernard Samson ... Deighton's Samson trilogies are as much about the elusiveness of human interactions as espionage. Spying is not a secret world sealed off from ordinary life but an extension of the world we all live in. - John Gray, New Statesman
