Spy Story (novel)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Spy Story is a 1974 novel by Len Deighton. It is not initially clear that the narrator is the same character of previous novels such as The Ipcress File etc. but he shares the same nameless quality. He has now left WOOC(P) where he worked in the previous novels and is employed in a Games Studies centre analysing possible scenarios of Soviet agression. The hero has tried to put his past behind him having a new girlfriend Marjorie he is living with and a new friend in Ferdy Foxwell.
