Four washed-up spooks. Two dead civilians. One remote and deadly outpost.

Harry Tate is a loyal MI5 officer and a servant of the State. But when two civilians are shot dead during a drugs intercept gone wrong, he is forced to take an immediate posting to the Red Station.

What he doesn't know is that this remote Balkan outpost is a punishment and he won't be going home. With an assassination team coming for him and invading Russian forces heading straight for the Red Station, Harry does whatever he can to save himself. But with few allies and enemies everywhere, Harry's chances of survival shrink with each passing day . . .

      Originally published in 2010, this is the first of six books in the Harry Tate series. Narrator John Telfer captures the brooding quality of his protagonist, an MI5 operative who oversees a drug raid that goes horribly awry. Harry is shipped off to the little-known Red Station outpost on the Russian border to join a group who are troublemakers, according to their MI5 and MI6 overlords in London. But there is a terrible secret attached to this outpost, which Harry finally unearths-- though who will be grateful for his sleuthing is not at all clear. Telfer takes on a range of British and Slavic accents with ease, propelling the story to its satisfying denouement. Listeners will be glad to know there are more Harry Tate audiobooks in the pipeline. L.W.S. © AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine

      British author Magson (No Kiss for the Devil) takes a break from crime fiction with this solid, suspenseful first of a new espionage series. When a drug bust on the Essex coast commanded by MI5 agent Harry Tate goes bad, resulting in the deaths of a member of his team and two civilians, Harry's superiors post him to Red Station (located in Georgia near South Ossetia), where agents who have committed serious errors are tucked away from the eyes of the press. Harry soon figures out that the job is a sham and that those agents who decide to try to return to England wind up dead. He manages to escape Red Station with some of his fellow black sheep just as the Russian army moves into the area, as it did in real life in August 2008. Harry is an intriguing addition to the ranks of the genre's reluctant spies, and readers will eagerly await his next adventure.
