From John le Carré comes a gripping and politically charged thriller set in the turbulent aftermath of the Cold War.

Tim Cranmer, a retired British intelligence officer, is living a quiet life when his former colleague and close friend Larry Pettifer suddenly disappears—along with a large sum of money. As Tim begins to search for answers, he’s drawn back into a world he thought he had left behind.

His investigation leads him into the volatile conflicts of the Caucasus, where political unrest, shifting alliances, and hidden agendas shape every move. As truth and loyalty blur, Tim must confront not only what happened to his friend—but the deeper consequences of a past built on secrecy.
