Preoccupied with his disastrous personal life, John Bachelor decides to call in a favour in order to get ex-spy Solly off his back.

Set in a snow-dusted London, Mick Herron's taut thriller takes place in the gap where old-style spy craft and modern intelligence analysis don't quite meet.

Solomon Dortmund sees an envelope pass from one hand to another in a bustling cafe and knows he's witnessed more than an innocent encounter. The retired spy carries the memory of tradecraft in his bones but struggles to engage the attention of preoccupied handler John Bachelor. Meanwhile undercover agent Snow White is about to take her first steps in the big league - but who is she working for?
