Britain, 1958. As a Russian émigré, businessman Samuel Petrukin is determined to integrate his young family into the establishment.
So when Samuel meets the captivating Kathleen Shaw and her husband Richard – a war-hero and member of parliament – he’s dazzled by their upper-class glamour. But then MI5 agents blackmail Samuel into spying on the Shaws, and he’s drawn into a dark web of deception.
These shadowy government operatives could be tempting him into a deadly trap. Are the Shaws really involved in a plot to betray their nation? The country’s future is shrouded in doubt.
Who can Samuel trust? Anyone??
