Six months before she is due to take up her position as the first female head of MI6, Amelia Levene vanishes without trace.
Former MI6 officer Thomas Beck is called out of retirement and ordered to find her. With only days before the story leaks to the press, Beck must make his way to France and begin to piece together Levene's final movements. Was she kidnapped? Or could Britain's most senior spy have defected?
Beck's investigation takes him to North Africa where he discovers an extraordinary secret buried deep in Levene's past. It is a secret which will come back to haunt her - and one which could make Beck pay with his life.
This is another trademark intelligent thriller which will cement Cumming's reputation as one of the most engaging and gripping British novelists writing today.
