Samenvatting

'This is vintage Deighton' Sunday Times

'Spy Line is vigorous and sleazy, psychologically complex and action-packed. And it is always exciting' Daily Mail

Bernard Samson is a spy on the run. But in the murky streets of Berlin, he knows where to hide. Wanted for an act of treachery he has not committed, he must not only escape the grasp of London Central, but get to the bottom of a tangled conspiracy that is about to change everything. In the thrilling penultimate instalment of the Hook, Line and Sinker trilogy, Bernard's personal and professional life collide with devastating consequences.

    This is the 5th spy novel in a series of three trilogies and 9 books about British MI 6-spy Bernard Samson (BS), not counting his 1987 brilliant novel “Winter: a Berlin Family, 1899-1945”, published after his first trilogy “Game, Set & Match”: ten books! This book is the most action-packed volume thus far in the 2nd trilogy “Hook, Line and Sinker”.
    After the disastrous conclusion of “Spy Hook”, BS is a wanted man and fugitive in the town he knows best and grew up in. He lives as a squatter in Berlin’s seedy Kreuzberg quarter among asylum seekers and addicts. But MI 6’s Berlin Field Unit quickly finds him and asks him to witness an interrogation. Thereafter, things calm down, life normalizes for BS… Why?
    Crafty BS remains unaware of being a mere pawn in a lengthy chess game to confuse the KGB and cause the collapse of the system the KGB is meant to protect, starting with East Germany. Fans of BS’s opinions and scathing descriptions of his younger boss Dicky Cruyer, whom LD in an earlier volume awarded the Stalin-prize for Office Politics, will enjoy this book. But much more happens in this book, including bloody events, which readers should discover for themselves.
    Otherwise, it is a quite satisfying, well-written book, once again full of intimate knowledge about Berlin, with talk of planned changes to Lisl’s hotel where Bernard grew up in the post WW II-era. Links are made to “Winter”, the novel mentioned above. And it has a bloody, surprising finish… “Spy Line” can be read on its own as a spy thriller. But enjoying the series chronologically from start to finish, is recommended.
