Publisher's Synopsis
Rumors have reached Whitehall that a top KGB assassin named Kozlov is about to defect to the CIA in Japan. The catch is that Kozlov wants his wife to defect as well - to the Brits. It's Charlie's job to confirm that the KGB agent is genuine. Then he has to get Kozlov's wife out of Japan safely. Charlie soon realizes that he is a pawn in an elaborate double-cross that only a mind as devious as his own could recognize - or top.
