Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy le Carr John (2024)

A mole implanted by Moscow Centre has infiltrated the highest ranks of the British Intelligence Service, almost destroying it in the process. Former spymaster George Smiley is brought out of retirement to hunt down the traitor at the very heart of the Circus, even though the culprit may be one of those closest to him. The first part of John le Carrs acclaimed Karla Trilogy, this novel begins the stealthy Cold War game of cat and mouse between the taciturn, dogged Smiley and his wily Soviet counterpart.
