      About This Book

      The classic spy thriller of lethal computer-age intrigue and a maniac's private cold war, featuring the unnamed narrator from The IPCRESS File, as he travels from the bone-freezing winter of Helsinki, Riga and Leningrad, to the stifling heat of Texas, and soon finds himself tangling with enemies on both sides of the Iron Curtain.
