November 1989. Communism is collapsing, and soon the Berlin Wall will come
down with it. But before that happens there is one last bit of cloak &
dagger to attend to. Two weeks ago, an undercover MI6 officer was killed in
Berlin. He was carrying information from a source in the East - a list
that allegedly contains the name of every espionage agent working in Berlin, on
all sides. No list was found on his body. Now Lorraine Broughton, an experienced
spy with no pre-existing ties to Berlin, has been sent into this powderkeg of
social unrest, counter-espionage, defections gone bad and secret assassinations
to bring back the list and save the lives of the British agents whose identities
reside on it.
