Julian Lawndsley has renounced his high-flying job in the City for a simpler life running a bookshop in a small English seaside town. But only a couple of months into his new career, Julian's evening is disrupted by a visitor. Edward, a Polish émigré living in Silverview, the big house on the edge of town, seems to know a lot about Julian's family and is rather too interested in the inner workings of his modest new enterprise. When a letter turns up at the door of a spy chief in London warning him of a dangerous leak, the investigations lead him to this quiet town by the sea.

Zum 90. Geburtstag des großen Schriftstellers und Bestsellerautors John le Carré. Julian Lawndsley hat seinen Überflieger-Job in London drangegeben für ein einfacheres Leben als Buchhändler in einem kleinen englischen Küstenort. Kaum ist er ein paar Monate dort, stört ein abendlicher Besucher seine Ruhe. Edward, ein polnischer Emigrant, der auf Silverview lebt, dem großen Anwesen am Ortsrand, scheint viel über Julians Familie zu wissen und zeigt großes Interesse an den Details seines neuen kleinen Unternehmens.

A counter-terror operation, codenamed Wildlife, is being mounted in Britain's most precious colony, Gibraltar. Its purpose: to capture and abduct a high-value jihadist arms-buyer. Its authors: an ambitious Foreign Office Minister, and a private defence contractor who is also his close friend. So delicate is the operation that even the Minister's Private Secretary, Toby Bell, is not cleared for it.
