Weekly August, 1956. A generation of British spies is haunted by
the ghosts of friends turned traitor. Whitehall spymaster Henry
Bone has long held Butterfly to be the Holy Grail of Cold War
Intelligence. His brain is an archive of deadly secrets - he can
identify each and every traitor spy as well as the serving British
agents who helped them. And now Bone learns that Butterfly plans to
defect to the Americans. Unless Bone gets to him first. William
Catesby, a spy with his reputation in tatters, is pressured into
posing as a defector in order to track down Butterfly. His quest
leads him from Berlin, through a shower of Molotov cocktails in
Budapest, to dinner alone with the East German espionage legend
Mischa Wolf. 'A gripping Cold War story centred on a Berlin
seething with agents and counterspies' Mail on Sunday 'Smart,
finely written' Publishers Weekly Starred Review 'All you could
want in a spy thriller' Oliver James Praise for Edward Wilson:
'Stylistically sophisticated . . . Wilson knows how to hold the
reader's attention' W.G. Sebald 'A reader is really privileged to
come across something like this' Alan Sillitoe
