The novel presents four gripping missions from McCready's storied past — spanning the dying embers of the Cold War — each unfolding as a self-contained yet interconnected story of deception, tradecraft, and geopolitical intrigue. Forsyth, a former journalist and intelligence insider, constructs each mission with the meticulous authenticity and razor-sharp tension that define his writing. The result is a compelling portrait of a spy whose greatest weapon is his mind, and whose greatest enemy may be the institution he has served for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49130764665051,"sku":"2026200010857-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/1cf0e2c5-653b-4bde-8aeb-825e6146f3e8.png?v=1786589533","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200010857-secondhand-the-deceiver","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
