Description
A tale of spies and betrayal in the Second World War from the bestselling author of The Collector.
'A wartime thriller in the mould of Robert Harris's Enigma ... and every bit as good' — The Times.
Germany, 1944.
The Allied invasion is not far away, and the high command desperately needs to know where it will take place. It is time to activate one of Hitler's last spies in Britain — Catherine Blake, a sleeper planted before the war and awaiting orders.
British intelligence also has its orders, and academic Alfred Vicary has been recruited by Churchill himself to carry them out. It is his job to find Catherine and stop her before it is too late.
But whose side are his own people on?

Daniel Silva's The Unlikely Spy has been praised for its tense, well-crafted storytelling, drawing comparisons to classic wartime thrillers. It has been noted for its suspense and strong characterisation, reminiscent of works by John Le Carré, and combines historical accuracy with thrilling fictional elements. The book offers a compelling and evocative espionage tale, likened to masterpieces by authors such as Robert Harris and Ken Follett, creating a memorable World War II narrative.
