When Stephen Donaldson is tasked to find a suspected internal leak in the British government, he becomes dangerously obsessed with the target's wife, Helen, setting himself up for a fall that will forever change his life. - WW Norton
London. December 1981. The IRA is on the attack, a cold war is being waged, another war is just over the horizon, and Stephen Donaldson spends his days listening. When he first joined the Institute, he expected to encounter glamorous, high-risk espionage. Instead he gets the tape-recorded conversations of ancient Communists and ineffectual revolutionaries--until the day he is assigned a new case: the ultra-secret PHOENIX, a suspected internal leak. The monotony of Stephenâs routine is broken, but itâs not PHOENIX who captures his imagination; itâs the targetâs wife, Helen. Beset by isolation and loneliness, Stephen becomes dangerously obsessed with Helen, risking his job to keep his fragile connection to her and inadvertently setting himself up for a fall that will forever change his life.The Long Room - WW Norton
