THE SECOND GEORGE SMILEY NOVEL Stella Rode has twice disturbed the
ancient cloisters of Carne School: firstly by being the wrong sort,
with her doyleys and china ducks, and secondly by being murdered.
George Smiley is asked by an old Service friend to investigate.
Smiley knows that Stella feared her husband would murder her, but
as he probes further beneath Carne's respectable veneer, he
uncovers far more than a simple crime of passion. In his second
novel, le Carre moves outside the world of espionage to reveal the
secrets at the heart of another particularly English institution.
The result is a pitch-perfect murder mystery, with Smiley as master
detective. 'Beautifully intelligent, satiric and witty' Daily
