As dawn breaks, three men in different parts of the city ... three close friends and colleagues in a giant spy network ... begin to prepare for the day's routine assessment. Their task is to collect a roll of microfilm from the Eastern Zone. Jim Gallagher and his wife, Joan Okada Gallagher, make the most of their morning together while the children sleep. Kept in the dark about Jim's missions, Joan accepts the need for secrecy. But she knows that, when it's time to run, it's time to run fast!Brian Ramsey, a thirty-five year old British citizen is in bed, already dressed.

But problem is that our hero is alive and traitor moves on to finish his business and ensure all survivors are dead and that his employers are satisfied and don't decide to silence him.
This move escalates into a full tragedy that sees our hero hell-bent on revenge and soon dead bodies start popping all over the place.
Very interesting, fast paced spy/revenge story. Author manages to show how personal feelings and official business (of spy agencies) are almost always in conflict. Considering that book is written in late 60's it aged pretty well.
Highly recommended to all thriller fans. ( )
