"Jag läste som besatt ända till den suveräna upplösningen som inträffade vid midnatt. Sen tog det lite tid innan pulsen gick ner och jag kunde somna ... något av det mest spännande jag läst, inte minst med tanke på det rådande världsläget." INGALILL MOSANDER, AFTONBLADET

Emma Makepeace är underrättelseagent, kopplad till den topphemliga enheten The Agency. Hittills har hon bara fått jobba med oinspirerande rutinuppdrag, men en dag kastas hon rakt in i en extremt komplicerad operation. Hennes uppdrag: Att inom ett dygn leta reda på en man vid namn Mike som ryssarna är ute efter och sätta honom i säkerhet hos MI6. Problemet är bara det att Mike befinner sig i Camden Town, så långt ifrån MI6 man kan komma i London. Och vad värre är, ryssarna har lyckats få tillgång till hela stadens kameraövervakningssystem. Så innan tidsfristen går ut måste Emma hitta ett sätt att off the grid föra Mike över hela London utan att någon upptäcker dem. Men hur har ryssarna tagit sig in i stadens övervakningshjärta? Finns det en förrädare i de egna leden? Och vad väntar på dem om de mot alla odds tar sig till målet?
