"Il romanzo bello e inquietante di Graham Greene č pieno di tenerezza, umorismo, eccitazione e dubbio" The Times Una fuga di notizie viene fatta risalire a una piccola sottosezione dei servizi segreti, innescando gli inevitabili controlli di sicurezza, tensioni e sospetti. Il tipo di atmosfera, forse, in cui potrebbero essere commessi degli errori? Per Maurice Castle, č comunque la fine della linea, ed č tempo per lui di ritirarsi a vivere in pace con la moglie e il figlio. Ma nessuno sfugge cosģ facilmente al mondo solitario, isolato e nevrotico del SIS. CON UN'INTRODUZIONE DI COLM TÓIBĶN.

Condizione: Bueno. : En el mundo discreto pero traicionero de "la firma", Maurice Castle realiza tareas rutinarias de inteligencia que son menos que trascendentales. Entonces, un nuevo jefe de seguridad, "una escoba", es nombrado. A medida que barre el departamento, descubre una fuga, una traición sistemįtica que involucra a las principales potencias de Sudįfrica. El asociado de Castle, Davis, tenķa acceso a los archivos en cuestión y su forma de beber, su afición al juego y su incurable romanticismo lo convierten en un probable agente doble. El propio Castle estį por encima de toda sospecha; siempre habķa tenido mucho cuidado. Excepto cuando se enamoró.
