- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Worried about a traitor in the highest ranks of British intelligence, Brahms Four, one of Britain's most important and most secret East German sources, wants out. Bernard Samson is the only current agency employee who has ever seen Brahms Four, but he's no longer a field agent and he would like to keep it that way. As he is reluctantly pulled deeper and deeper into the crisis, Samson races against time to identify the traitor among his colleagues.This spy thriller from the early 1980s seems to reflect some of the uncertainties in the Eastern Bloc that would result in revolutionary changes by the end of the decade. I enjoyed reading about Berlin locations that I had visited right before I read the book. The plot was occasionally difficult to follow, and Samson didn't reveal all of his suspicions to the reader. Samson is a likeable hero, and I'll look for more of his adventures when I'm in the mood for this genre.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5While set in the era of the Berlin Wall and Russian Communism and thus perhaps a little dated, the story is finely crafted and a pleasure to read. What I found particularly enjoyable is that, unlike many authors, the opposing sides are written up as being a mixture of the professional and the bumbling amateur without the racial bias of the author being demonstrated.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The story kept me interested. The characters were well developed and acted in believable ways. I enjoyed the book.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Outstanding. Great plot, satisfying characters, compelling sense of postwar Berlin
