Dudley Westover is a diffident and modest civil servant looking forward to an early retirement. His days are brightened when he is given an important assignment on a major new weapon development. Perhaps it will cap off his long service at the Naval Laboratory where he works. Then in rapid succession he finds himself being recruited by the Soviet KGB who are intent on obtaining the technology being used to develop the weapon system; and before he can rebuff this approach he is enlisted by the CIA to continue the charade, acting as a double agent, supplying the Soviets bogus information and obtaining intelligence on their spy network. He is entangled deeply in the shadowy world of espionage. He forms an unlikely alliance with the Dutchman, Wim, and his lovely consort, Liesl. Suddenly, Dudley finds himself pursued by the beautiful courier, Inse. He learns as he goes, seemingly only a step ahead of his Soviet handlers who would terminate him if his game were discovered, and navigating through shark-infested waters of the various intelligence agencies. Roe sets his novel in the most fascinating cities of Europe and peoples it with memorable characters. It is a gripping story set in a time of great change and great hope for the democracies. You will find yourself drawn in and involved right up to the unexpected and dramatic conclusion.
