you can see the genesis of the Smiley character's thinking here as it relates to his job,personality and his worldview at large. a nice murder procedural that really lets Smiley dig in and show more of his critical thinking. a fine introduction to Smiley by JLC that leaves you wanting more of the Smiley saga. ...more

An outstanding spy mystery, suspenseful without being cliched and full of characters of unusual depth.
