Thomas Dylan is an unlikely spy. Rejected by MI6 he joins the Ministry
of Defence where his first mission is a total failure. Unexpectedly he
is then sent to Rio de Janeiro to recover a submarine interrogator
stolen from the US Navy. In Brazil he discovers that those supposedly on
his side, MI6 and the CIA, have their own priorities and that his life
is definitely not one of them. A murderous game which began with the
death of a British spy in Argentina is being played out in a city of
sun, sea and secret police. When Dylan comes face-to-face with the
brutal realities of Brazil's military dictatorship he knows he has to
trust somebody. But who? The only thing he knows for sure that the woman
he wants to trust has been lying to him from the very beginning - should
he take the risk? This is a fast-paced thriller in the vein of John le
Carré and Eric Ambler.
