„Jak to się dobrze czyta! To jak dźwięk trąbki, który przeszywa nas do kości i do bólu. Bo John le Carré nie tylko żegna się ze światem świetną powieścią. On ostrzega” The Washington Post. Julian Lawndsley porzucił intratną posadę w londyńskim City, by cieszyć się znacznie prostszym życiem właściciela księgarni w nadmorskim, angielskim miasteczku. Niestety po kilku miesiącach spokój Juliana zakłóca Edward, tajemniczy Polak, emigrant mieszkający w Silverview, wielkiej willi na skraju miasteczka. Edward trochę za dużo wie o rodzinnej historii Juliana i za bardzo interesuje się jego skromną księgarnią. Tymczasem w Londynie pewien wysoko postawiony pracownik wywiadu brytyjskiego otrzymuje list z ostrzeżeniem o niebezpiecznym przecieku informacji. Śled...
Nat, 47-letni weteran brytyjskich służb specjalnych, ma wrażenie, że jego kariera agenta dobiegła końca. Wrócił do Londynu ze swoją anielsko cierpliwą żoną – Prue. Jednak w obliczu rosnącego zagrożenia ze strony Moskwy biuro ma dla niego jeszcze jedno zadanie. Nat ma przejąć The Haven, nieistniejącą już podstację London General z bandą szpiegów. Mocnym atutem zespołu jest młoda Florence, która ma oko na Departament ds. Rosji, i (zamieszany w rosyjskie sprawy) wpływowy ukraiński oligarcha. Nat jest nie tylko szpiegiem, ale także zapalonym graczem w badmintona. W poniedziałkowe wieczory zwykle grywa z o połowę od niego młodszym, introspekcyjnym i samotnym Edem. Ed nie znosi Brexitu, Trumpa i swojej pracy w bezdusznej agencji medialnej. I to Ed , osoba, po kt...
