Reviews
"Rimington tells her story with the crisp authority one would expect of James Bond's M . . . The story careens along energetically, giving us lots of juicy insider-seeming details along the way." - New York Times Book Review "Now that Vladimir Putin is flexing his muscles in the international arena, Rimington, who always has a sharp eye for contemporary headlines, provides another dose of Cold War tension for MI5 and MI6 . . . [ Breaking Cover is] perhaps the most vividly plotted of Rimington's recent spy thrillers." - Kirkus "Compelling . . . Rimington, who spent decades at MI5, does a fine job of depicting the up-to-the-minute tradecraft." - Publishers Weekly "She bids to join the ranks of such secret-agent authors as Somerset Maugham, Graham Greene and John le Carr" - The Wall Street Journal "For a pacy page-turner, she's a safe bet . . .

Synopsis
A new cold war is coming, and Liz Carlyle is about to find herself on very thin ice. Still reeling from the loss of the man she loved in a botched antiterrorist operation in Paris, Carlyle has been posted to MI5's counter-espionage desk, where her bosses hope the relative quiet might give her the chance to find her feet again. However, they hadn't counted on the aftershocks of Russia's incursions into Crimea and President Putin's determination to silence those who would oppose him, wherever they may be living in the world. As a result, Liz soon finds herself on the hunt for a Russian spy on British soil--a spy whose intentions are unknown, and whose presence is a threat not only to Russian dissidents living in England but also to the security of the nation itself. And with MI5 and MI6 coming under painful public scrutiny in the post-Edward Snowden world, for Liz and her team, security is something that is beginning to feel increasingly remote. Pacy, gripping and drawn from her own experience, Stella Rimington's latest Liz Carlyle thriller brings the new cold war compellingly to life.

The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.

The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely.
