The reason? His Cold War past has come back to claim him. Intelligence operations that were once the toast of secret London, and involved such characters as Alec Leamas, Jim Prideaux, George Smiley and Peter Guillam himself, are to be scrutinised under disturbing criteria by a generation with no memory of the Cold War and no patience with its justifications.10aSmiley, George (Fictitious character) vFiction10aEnglish fiction 20aSpy fiction20aIntelligence service  vFiction20aIntelligence officers vFiction20aCold WarvFiction
