Overview

The exhilarating second book in the Game, Set, Match series has Bernard Samson racing around the globe laying the groundwork for KGB major Erich Stinnes to defect to London Intelligence. Samson has a lot to prove in the way of loyalty after his wife's defection to the KGB, and her help in convincing Stinnes to side with the West would be a big step in the right direction. But Bernard risks being entangled in a web of old loyalties and betrayals, murder, suicide, and office politics as he tries to negotiate this maneuver. The further he goes, the more events spin out of his control--and he finds himself caught in ever more compromising positions.
