"A remarkable book by the master. Reading it is a great experience" Henning Mankell, Daily Telegraph
An English couple, Perry and Gail, are taking an off-peak holiday on the Cariboean island of Antigua. By seeming chance they bump into a Russian millionaire called Dima who owns a peninsula and a dia mond-encrusted gold watch. He also has a tattoo on his right thumb, and wants a game of tennis.
What else he wants propels the young lovers on a tortuous journey through Paris to a safe house in the Swiss Alps, to the murkiest cloisters of the City of London and its unholy alliance with Britain's Intelligence Establishment.
