Winter, 1947. Britain’s security services fear that Soviet intelligence has penetrated the state and obtained access to atomic secrets. MI5 officer Freya Bentall asks Tom Wilde to investigate three suspects after Joseph Stalin authorises an operation intended to protect a highly placed communist agent.
Wilde moves between London’s criminal networks, cultural circles and extremist politics while testing the loyalties of people inside the intelligence establishment. The investigation brings the wartime alliance with the Soviet Union to a definitive end and places Wilde’s family within the violence of the emerging Cold War.
