If the Cuban gamble goes wrong and war breaks out, Britain will cease to exist.     Whitehall dispatches a secret envoy to defuse the confrontation.\r\n\r\n Spawned in the bleak poverty of an East Anglian fishing port, Catesby is a spy with an anti-establishment chip on his shoulder. He loves his country, but despises the class who run it.     Though he is loathed by the Americans for his left-wing sympathies, Catesby is sent to Havana and Washington to make clandestine contacts.\r\n\r\n London has authorised Catesby to offer Moscow a secret deal to break the deadlock.     But before it can be sealed, he meets the Midnight Swimmer, who has a chilling message for Washington.   'An intellectually commanding thriller' Independent'An  excellent spy novel .\r\n\r\n . . belongs on the bookshelf alongside similarly   unsettling works by le Carre, Alan Furst and Eric Ambler' Huffington PostPraise for Edward Wilson: 'Stylistically sophisticated .\r\n\r\n . . Wilson knows how to hold the reader's attention' W.G.\r\n\r\n Sebald'A reader is really privileged to come across something like this' Alan Sillitoe'All too often, amid the glitzy gadgetry of the spy thriller, all the   fast cars and sexual adventures, we lose sight of the essential   seriousness of what is at stake.
