A BERNARD SAMSON NOVEL
'A master of fictional espionage' Daily Mail
When Bernard Samson is woken in the middle of the night and discovers an injured man on his doorstep, he knows it will only bring trouble. It is the start of a dangerous journey to Zurich, rural Poland and the heart of a mystery that has tormented both him and his wife Fiona since they left East Berlin. Thrown into conflict with his superiors, and forced to question his job and his marriage, Bernard will learn, in the second part of the 'Faith, Hope and Charity' trilogy, whether treachery can ever be forgiven.
'He can still set the nerve ends jangling with a thriller set in the Cold War ... his sense of pace is extraordinary, as is his sense of mood' Sunday Telegraph

MEDIA REVIEWS
As fresh and brisk as ever ... a feast to be wallowed in. - Sunday Express
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
For sheer readability he has no peer. - Evening Standard
Like lying back in a hot bath with a large malt whisky - absolute bliss. - Sunday Telegraph
