Synopsis:
COLONEL BUTLER’S WOLF
Top British Intelligence Agent Colonel Butler was investigating the background of a young university lecturer who had died under suspicious circumstances.
At Oxford he was told that foreign agents were systematically ruining the careers of the most of promising students – and a car he was travelling in was attacked by a mysterious sniper.
In Northumberland, at the parental home of the dead lecturer’s girlfriend, the redoubtable Dr Audley put in an appearance, and sent Butler on a hiking tour.
Audley’s plan was to use Colonel Butler as a decoy to flush out a new Soviet agent. And as he followed Hadrian’s Wall, the deadly chess game entered its final phase...
“Probably the best that this highly intelligent story-teller has yet achieved”
TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT
“Better than his award-winning debut...it is thriller writing at its most intelligent and subtle”
DAILY TELEGRAPH
“Ingeniously involved...splendidly intelligent entertainment”
OXFORD TIMES
“Fine action, fine intrigue, a fine terminal shock”
SUNDAY TIMES
“The best thriller writer in the business”
TIME OUT
A spy novel, the third to feature David Audley, who here goes to Hadrian's Wall where he plans to use his Intelligence colleague as a decoy to flush out a Soviet agent.
