Maurice Castle is a high-level operative in the British secret
service during the Cold War. He is deeply in love with his African
wife, who escaped apartheid South Africa with the help of his
communist friend. Despite his misgivings, Castle decides to act as
a double agent, passing information to the Soviets to help his
in-laws in South Africa. In order to evade detection, he allows his
assistant to be wrongly identified as the source of the leaks. But
when suspicions remain, Castle is forced to make an even more
excruciating sacrifice to save himself. Originally published in
1978, "The Human Factor "is an exciting novel of espionage drawn
from Greene's own experiences in MI6 during World War II, and
ultimately a deeply humanistic examination of the very nature of
loyalty. This edition features a new introduction by Colm Toibin.
