How does a secret service confront its past, when secrets are kept
for ever? Buried deep in MI6's digital archives is the most
classified directory of all. It doesn't contain war plans or agent
profiles, but shame: the misdeeds of politicians, royalty, business
leaders and the service's own personnel. There are seven decades'
worth of images and recordings, usually acquired for the sake of
assessing risk, sometimes as a guard against betrayal, often
engineered by MI6 for their own purposes. These amount to the most
sensitive two thousand terabytes of data in the Service's
possession. When material from the archive begins appearing online,
the panic is widespread. At first, the security breach only
manifests itself in apparently random events: a suicide, a
disappearance, a breakdown. But when it turns out that the
individuals concerned were all contacted by the same anonymous
person, a connection comes into focus. The archive has somehow
leaked. The hunt is now of unprecedented urgency. That's when they
call for Elliot Kane...
