✦ Synopsis

This ebook omnibus edition brings together Charles Cumming's two classic Alex Milius novels, also offering readers a sample of his following novel The Trinity Six. A SPY BY NATURE Alec Milius is young, smart, ambitious and comfortable with deceit. So when a chance encounter leads him to MI6, Alec thinks he's landed the perfect job for his talents. But working alone, relying on instinct, he's soon spinning a web of deception that has him caught between his new masters and powerful opponents. For in his new line of work the difference between the truth and a lie can be the difference between life and death. And Alec is having trouble telling them apart ... THE SPANISH GAME Alec Milius quit the spying game six years ago – or so he thought. Living in exile in Madrid, he is lured back into a brutal world of lies and deception by the mysterious disappearance of a prominent politician. Forced to work alone, without the support of his former masters in London, Alec comes face to face with the nightmare of modern terror. And this time there's no-one to call for help...
