- Summary
- As the Soviet Union dissolves, a long-buried secret puts Charlie & rsquo;s life in danger & mdash;againCharlie Muffin shouldn & rsquo;t be condemned for mourning the end of the Cold War. For decades the KGB provided him with endless professional success and now that it & rsquo;s gone, Charlie is nearly out of a job. Removed from active duty, he is now training new recruits on operations in a post-Soviet era. It & rsquo;s dull work that leaves Charlie yearning for the adventures of old and this time, he & rsquo;ll get more than he bargained for. One of Charlie & rsquo;s first pupils is arrested within days of arriving in Beijing to extract a blown British agent. Now Charlie must go to China and get both of them out. Meanwhile, someone is searching for Charlie & mdash;Natalia Fedova, a former lover, who surfaces with a new job high up in Russian intelligence and a daughter she says is his. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Brian Freemantle including rare photos from the author & rsquo;s personal collection.
