Publisher's summary

In 1963, Berlin is dark and dangerous. Len Deighton's skilled, jaded, anony­mous hero of The IPCRESS File is now set to arrange the defection—and fake the death—of a leading Soviet scien­tist. "A ferociously cool fable" (New York Times) and one of the first novels written after the construction of the Berlin Wall, Funeral in Berlin revels in the fraught, chilling atmosphere of a divided city.

I love the vagueness

As with all Len Deighton, the story was entertaining and lyrical. Descriptions poetic , dialogue engaging the time period. The story layered and intriguing. I admit I had to listen to the first three chapters a few times over to capture the names and connections.
