Jessica Andersen is a ghost in the machinery of the Cold War in Berlin.. Officially, she is a translator for a British cultural exchange programme. Unofficially, she is an undercover agent of the British Secret Intelligence Service... MI6. Her cover is perfect: earnest, slightly bookish, fluent in German with a charming, hesitant accent. She attends dreary receptions, translates banal speeches on artistic cooperation, and smiles politely at Stasi officers who eye her with a mixture of suspicion and condescension. They only see a pretty, twenty-five-year-old young woman from a soft, decadent West. They do not see the woman who can pick a lock in thirty seconds, who can read a microdot with a pocket lens, who can empty the magazine of her Walther PPK into the centre ring of a target at fifty yards and whose memory is a steel trap for faces, names, and whispered conversations.
