About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
'Deighton is a marvel ... a tale told by an author at the height of his power' Chicago Tribune
World-weary agent Bernard Samson is losing control of his personal and professional life. Sent to Mexico to aid the defection of a KGB agent to the West, he has a chance to prove his worth. Instead he is torn between conflicting loyalties, and lost in a maze of double-dealing and duplicity. The second novel in the Game, Set and Match trilogy is a gripping portrayal of a man who can trust no one, not even those closest to him.

Critic Reviews
Deighton is back in his original milieu, the bleak spy world of betrayers and betrayed.
Deighton's outstanding achievement is the nine-volume series chronicling the life and times of Bernard Samson ... Deighton's Samson trilogies are as much about the elusiveness of human interactions as espionage. Spying is not a secret world sealed off from ordinary life but an extension of the world we all live in. (John Gray)
Deighton is a marvel ... few authors writing in the rigorous and finite genre of spy fiction have mastered the craft as well as Deighton ... Mexico Set is a pure tale, told by an author at the height of his power.
For sheer readability he has no peer.
Like lying back in a hot bath with a large malt whisky - absolute bliss.
Len Deighton's spy novels are so good they make me sad the Cold War is over. (Len Deighton)
