Mexico Set

A Bernard Samson Novel

De: Len Deighton

When disaffected KGB major Erich Stinnes is spotted in Mexico City, British intelligence agent Bernard Samson must entice him to take the final step and defect. With his domestic life in shambles and his career heading towards disaster, Bernard needs to prove his re­liability. And he know Stinnes already: Bernard had been interrogated by him in East Berlin.

Len Deighton’s Style

is awesome! Similar in its simplistic yet illustrious manner to Fitzgerald and Hemingway. He makes you feel the personalities of the characters and the atmosphere of the places they live and travel without the verbosity of some of his contemporaries. Another excellent book!

Excellent

Excellent story, pacing, lector. Can't wait to finish the series. Usually the second book in a series starts to get tired, but not this.

Slow burn. Excellent narrator

Loved the story. Builds up slowly, lots of character development and plenty of conversation. Once you settle into the slower pace, you start to appreciate just how good the narration is. The accents, the inflections, etc. all really make the story pop. I bought the next one immediately after I finished it.

Highly recommended.

Wonderful!

Love Len Deighton’s Samson series. So glad they are now available on Audible! Great Cold War spy novel.

Still a great book

The plot, the language, the evident skill. This series pulls it all together. I find Deighton underestimated these days but he’s the best at the Cold War. Le Carrie is brilliant but always seems slightly less engaged with the nitty gritty.
