Six weeks before she is due to take up her position as the first female head of MI6, Amelia Levene vanishes without a trace. Her disappearance is the gravest crisis MI6 has faced for more than a decade. There has been no ransom demand, no word from foreign intelligence services, no hint of a defection. Should news of Levene's disappearance leak out, the consequences would be catastrophic. But for disgraced MI6 officer Thomas Kell, the crisis offers a chance for redemption. He is approached by his former employers and ordered to find her. Kell's search takes him first to France, then North Africa, where he discovers an extraordinary secret hidden deep in Levene's past. It is a secret that could fatally compromise Britain's national security - and for which Kell himself could pay with his life.

A fast moving spy thriller
It's very soon apparent that the writer has inside info on the spy business - I was fascinated by the surveillance procedure, how they swan into someone's hotel room and rifle the safe undetected.
This is a very well written and read story with a credible plot in the same territory as Le Carre, but rather more enjoyable. Highly recommended.
