The Trinity Six

Resumen del libro

Hard-up Russia expert Dr Sam Gaddis finally has a lead for a book that could set his career back on track. He has staggering new information about an unknown sixth member of the infamous Cambridge spy ring a man who has evaded detection for his entire life. But when his source suddenly dies, Gaddis is left with just shreds of his investigation, and no idea that he is already in too deep. He is threatened, betrayed, hunted and alone. To get his life back, he must scour a continent still laced with lies to find the truth behind the Trinity Six. Both Moscow and MI6 will use everything in their power to keep their fragile peace intact. But why murder people to hide secrets that should by now be history? Gaddis starts to understand far too late that he is closing in on a discovery that will shake Europe to its foundations

Biografía del autor

Charles Cumming (Ayr, Escocia, 1971) educado en Eton, se graduó en Literatura Inglesa por la Universidad de Edimburgo en 1994. Un año más tarde fue reclutado por MI6, el servicio de inteligencia británico, pero no acabó su periodo de formación y en 1996 se mudó a Montreal. Sus conocimientos sobre el mundo del espionaje le llevaron a escribir su primera obra, A Spy by Nature (2001), a la que siguieron The Hidden Man (2003), The Spanish Game (2006) y Typhoon (2008), con las que se ha convertido merecidamente en uno de los más aclamados escritores de novelas de espionaje. El sexto hombre es una de sus mejores novelas y la primera traducida al castellano.
