About the book
As relations with the Soviet Union warm, the chief of British intelligence is ordered to single out a maverick officer as an example, and Sam McCready's name is put forward. Head of Deception, Disinformation and Psychological Operations at the SIS, McCready is known as the Deceiver for his maverick successes. His deputy refuses to let him go quietly and demands a hearing, at which four of McCready's best-known cases are recalled. Frederick Forsyth first conceived the stories for a British television series in which Alan Howard played McCready, and the novel spent eight weeks on the New York Times list of best sellers.
Mohnish Pabrai counts Forsyth among his favorite fiction authors, praising his worldly wisdom and saying his books are hard to put down.

Frederick Forsyth is one of my favorite fiction authors. His worldly wisdom is terrific and difficult to put his books down after you start.
