Description
Sir Arthur Cumberpot's career as British Ambassador to Bulgaria is cut short by unforeseen events. His wife Annabel is accused of being a spy and sent home, her background checked by MI5. As it turns out, she is the biological daughter of Jim Kilbey, Britain's most famous spy. Annabel's situation is marked by serendipity, cover-ups, duplicated evidence, and exaggeration. She is also heartless, treacherous, self-indulgent, and without shame. This story explores a complex web of intrigue, deception, and ultimately, murder. Against the backdrop of political change in South Eastern Europe, this novel delves into the lives of disgruntled communists, cold war warriors, and those caught in the middle.
