Mexico - set
Bernard Samson heads to Mexico to persuade a KGB agent to defect. With his family shattered and his loyalty questioned, he must complete a mission in which nobody seems trustworthy.
British intelligence officer Bernard Samson is struggling with the aftermath of his wife Fiona’s defection to the East. A mission in Mexico offers a chance to restore his professional standing: he must persuade disaffected KGB officer Erich Stinnes to defect. The men already know each other—Stinnes once interrogated Samson in East Berlin.
Their former hostility makes any approach delicate. Samson must judge whether Stinnes genuinely wants to change sides while navigating the suspicions of his own Service. Every apparent opportunity raises another question about who is directing events and who might be expendable.
Professional duty and personal betrayal become inseparable. With his domestic life unsettled and his career under pressure, Samson enters a web of conflicting loyalties in which familiarity provides little reassurance. Recruiting an enemy may prove no harder than trusting an ally.
Mexico Set is the second volume of the trilogy begun with Berlin Game and concluded in London Match. Len Deighton combines Cold War intrigue with the psychological strain of a man who needs to prove his reliability while doubting the motives of those around him.
