"Of all the books written about Philby and his associates, Philby's is still the one most worth reading." (The Times)
"Far more gripping than any novel of espionage I can remember" (Graham Greene)
"To this day I am convinced that he was not an ideologue. Spying was just his way of being above lesser mortals" (Nigel West)
"Addictive . . . highly polished . . . written with style and a feline sense of irony, making it a much better read than any of the other Philby literature" (The Guardian)
"Philby has no home, no women, no faith. Behind the inbred upper-class arrogance, the taste for adventure, lies the self-hate of a vain misfit for whom nothing will ever be worthy of his loyalty. In the last instance, Philby is driven by the incurable drug of deceit itself" (John Le Carre)
A fascinating insight into the mind and motivations of the notorious British 'Master Spy' and Soviet double agent.
