About This Item
Synopsis
Ex-spy Victor Maskell has been retired for twenty years, and decides to write his memoirs, which spur the plot into life. Maskell is loosely based on British art historian and Soviet spy Anthony Blunt. Banville offers a glimpse into the world of those who lead a double life, as in the case of spies. This tale goes beyond the mere facts of espionage to penetrate the intricate heart of the spy.
