Special agent Devereaux - codename November - has gone to ground at Lake Geneva thinking he has left his days at R Section behind when he recieves a cryptic message from Hanley, his former boss:

"There are no spies..."

Devereaux doesn't know that Hanley has been locked away in a government-sponsored asylum for people with too many secrets, or that a beautiful KGB assassin has been ordered to stalk and kill him. And he doesn't know that zero hour ticks closer for an operation to catch a master spy that will drag him back into the world of duty and danger he's tried so long to leave.

Devereaux has lived on the edge for long enough to know trouble when it comes his way. He has been out of action for a year, but he is still a target. The Opposition won't forget the November Man and won't make the same mistakes again.

Even R Section can't offer him much protection but, as Devereaux said himself, all the king's horses and all the king's men won't stop the Russians getting what they want.

So with a KGB issued contract on his life drawing Soviet hitmen onto US soil, Devereaux is out on his own. Precisely where he wants to be...

Waterlogged, head down, the body floats sluggishly: an agent, American, machine-gunned and thrown into the Seine.

A second body: Russian, an agent, sprwled in a drainage ditch near Lakenheath USAF base.

And dead in Venice: two men, American and British. One, mutilated, wave-washed in the lagoon. The other dumped, garrotted, in an empty Coca Cola delivery boat.

Only agent Devereaux, the November Man, can solve the mystery.

There wasn't much that Tartakoff could offer Devereaux by way of paying for his passage to the West. There were a lot of risks in bringing over KGB defectors and the Russian was nothing special. Then he said he could get Thomas Crohan out as well. Devereaux passed the name onto Washington. The silence was deafening. Privately, the CIA was throwing a fit.

Thomas Crohan has officially been dead for forty years, and the big boys from Intelligence on both sides of the Atlantic (and behind the Iron Curtain) are determined that he will stay that way. Even if it means wiping out anyone who could prove otherwise.

And that, of course, includes Devereaux...

Hemingway's notebook. Everyone is looking for it on St. Michel in the Caribbean. Here the president is a raving lunatic, the "Black Police" have the run of the capital, guerilla forces mass in the hills, an organized crime syndicate plans its own takeover, and U.S. agents brutally battle for a document filled with hot political secrets, the lost notebook of Ernest Hemingway.

One of America's most lethal operatives, the man they call November, will need all his courage and cunning if the coveted prize is to be his.

Father Leo Tunney came out of the jungle twenty years after he entered it. Long presumed dead, he quietly walked out of Cambodia to present himself at the US Embassy in Bangkok. Terribly frail and confused, the old man seemed at first to have been forgotten by the outside world.

Haunted by what he's seen in the jungle, the priest wishes only to live out his life in peace. Until a handful of people in high places remember who he is and what he might know. And every one has reason to be the first to talk to Father Tunney. And the last.

Devereaux. Codename November. A brilliant, lethally cool operative, he was years ago regarded as one of America's most valuable security assets.

Now courted by the KGB and under threat from the CIA, Devereaux must foil the planned assassination of England's richest man and it's prime minister in a treacherous war of shadows on the Irish Sea.
