In 1973, Sir Jack Carteret, Director-General of MI5, is buried in a lonely Somerset graveyard. Was he the traitor who laid bare his nation's secrets to the Soviet Union? Or is there, as many believe, an agent or ring of agents still in place, silently revealing all to our deadliest enemy? Thirteen years later, fear and suspicion are destroying British intelligence - and their vital ally the United States no longer trusts them. David Nairn of the Secret Intelligence Service is desperate to untangle the web of deception, violence and blackmail woven in Moscow forty years ago. Suddenly the defection of a young East German scientist could lead to the vital breakthrough. But first they must turn his mother, the elusive Sonia, a top-ranking Soviet spy who ran Klaus Fuchs and the other atom bomb spies in the War - and whose loyalty to Moscow is utterly unassailable. Nairn knows he must risk everything, including Sarah Cable's life, to expose the most dangerous mole of all time. In The Third Betrayal, the new master of the espionage novel probes a tantalizing secret.

Autorenporträt
"Before taking up writing, Michael Hartland spent twenty years travelling widely in Europe and the Far East as a diplomat, then working in counter-terrorism and for the United Nations. He draws on this experience to describe the secret world of espionage with insight and great authenticity. His first book DOWN AMONG THE DEAD MEN was a bestseller and his ground-breaking series of espionage novels established him as one of the leading thriller writers in Britain and the United States. They have been translated into twenty-seven European languages and Japanese, adapted for BBC Radio-4 and television - and remain among the most fast-moving and gripping spy novels ever published. Michael has also made documentaries on espionage for television and BBC Radio-4; and written for The Times, Daily Telegraph and The Guardian. He and his family live in Devon, where he is working on a new project inspired by contemporary Islamic terrorism."
