The Garden of Weapons
By John Gardner
In a desperate bid to save his top spy network, Herbie Kruger goes back over the Berlin Wall…

Against orders, Britain’s German-born spymaster offers himself to the Soviets.
But while Kruger hunts his quarry – and the KGB close in – he also makes a shattering journey into his own past…
