Publisher's Synopsis
FROM THE MILLION-SELLING AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR OF ARMAN'S JOURNEY AND WHY? Nick Hellyer is an accidental spy. Expelled in disgrace from Cambridge, he's hurled into the contradictory and vibrant city of Alexandria as Egypt heads towards the 1967 Arab-Israeli War. His double life as a secret agent mirrors the duplicities of his relationships. But when he stumbles on a war-changing secret, who can he trust not to betray or abandon him? 'You don't work for us and never have worked for us. This is what we would put out if you were rumbled. A rogue, a loose cannon.'
