A SPY ALONE. AN ENEMY WITHIN.

A veteran American spymaster weaving an elaborate web.

A politician who makes a high-stakes promise he can’t keep.

A clutch of sophisticated air defence missiles stolen in Ukraine.

A terrorist cell with plans to commit an outrage in the US capital.

And, at the centre of it all, a British agent, operating alone and undercover, on a desperate, globe-trotting mission to prevent catastrophe.

She cannot fail . . .
