Story
It is spring in 1963 and George Smiley has left the Circus. With the wreckage of the West's spy war with the Soviets strewn across Europe, he has eyes only on a more peaceful life. And indeed, with his marriage more secure than ever, there is a rumour in Whitehall – unconfirmed and a little scandalous – that George Smiley might almost be happy. But Control has other plans. A Russian agent has defected in the most unusual of circumstances, and the man he was sent to kill in London is nowhere to be found.

The story captures the listener from the start and the tone is spot on. Totally worthy of the master’s name.

The narration is great. The story however lets the whole down. Characters, especially female ones, lack any depth in this book and are essentially exaggerated caricatures, especially female characters.
