Alec Leamas is tired. It's the 1960s, he's been out in the cold for years, spying in the shadow of the Berlin Wall for his British masters. Now Control wants to bring him in at last - but only after one final assignment. He must travel dep into the heart of Communist Germany and betray his country, a job that he will do with his usual cynical professionalism.
