Book description
Bombs are exploding in the streets of London, but life seems to have
planted more subtle booby-traps for Miles Flint. Miles is a spy. His job
is to watch and to listen, then to report back to his superiors, nothing
more. The job, affording glimpses into the most private lives of his
victims, appeals to Miles. He doesn't lust after promotion, and he
doesn't want action. He wants, just for once, not to botch a case.
Having lost one suspect - with horrific consequences - Miles becomes too
involved with another, a young Irish woman. His marriage seems ready to
crumble to dust. So does his home.
But Miles is given one last chance for redemption - a trip to Belfast,
which quickly becomes a flight of terror, murder and shocking
discoveries. But can the voyeur survive in a world of violent action?
