'Stella Rimington was the first female director general of Britainâ€™s MI5 and brings true authenticity to her tale of intellectual thievery' Irish Independent A historic institution is hiding a very modern threat. The student Li Min, a Chinese student, is forced by her government to transfer from Harvard to Oxford University, where she is recruited to an elite Chinese study centre based out of St Felixâ€™s College. The scapegoat Meanwhile, the centreâ€™s newly recruited head stumbles on its more sinister purpose: recruiting Chinese and sympathetic British students to steal high-value research and intellectual property. Unsure who at the university he can trust, he turns to CIA agent Manon Tyler for help. The spy who might be their only hope... But as Li and another Chinese-American student are drawn deeper into a deadly game, will Manon be able to penetrate the heart of St Felixâ€™s secrets in time to save them? PRAISE FOR STELLA RIMINGTON: 'Intriguing and very cleverly-plotted' ALEX GERLIS 'Races along at breakneck speed. Packed with insider information, this is not one to miss' M. W. CRAVEN 'Damn good' Daily Telegraph 'A must-read for fans of contemporary spy fiction' Publishers Weekly 'This is something rare: the spy novel that prizes authenticity over fabrication, that is true to the character and spirit of intelligence work' Mail on Sunday
