The Spanish game

"Abandoned by MI6 after a disastrous operation against the CIA, Milius has slowly rebuilt his life in Madrid: he has a flat, a job - and a relationship with the wrong woman." "Older and wiser than the young spy who first caught the eye of British Intelligence, he still has a talent for deception and a fatal weakness for secrets. So when a prominent politician disappears in suspicious circumstances, he can't resist tracking him down." "But the rules have changed. Alec is now working alone, outside the boundaries of any official agency. Paranoid and expendable, he soon becomes vulnerable to the ruthless duplicities of a secret world in which no one can be trusted." "Yet as he comes face to face with the nightmare of modern terror, Alec is given one last chance for redemption."--BOOK JACKET.
