Tricks and Treachery

By Phyllis Bischoff

Why did Cyril, former ambassador and pillar of the establishment, never get a gong? And why is his retirement increasingly plagued by uncomfortable memories? His daughter is determined to find out about 'Uncle Leo's' agenda, during his regular visits to her father's embassy in East Berlin. In the meantime, Leo has decided to tell all in a series of newspaper articles, revealing the extent of his espionage activities during the Cold War. Following in the footsteps of his hero, Kim Philby, and years of undying devotion to the 'cause', it finally becomes clear that his erstwhile masters have no such conception of loyalty, and very long memories.
