"Illegal Action"

With "Illegal Action" Stella Rimington has drawn on her experience as head of MI5 to write another thriller starring Liz Carlyle.

Liz has been transferred to counter-espionage and her former boss, Charles Wetherby,  is on extended leave as his wife fights a terminal illness.  Although Liz is not happy about this assignment and having to navigate new staff, she was able to bring Peggy Kinsolving with her.  As Peggy was invaluable on her last assignment, she is pleased.

When it is thought that Russia is planning a hit on one of their own citizens now living in Great Britain, Liz ends up going undercover spending a lot of time in his household although she's not really certain there is any danger.  However, when her life is threatened, she begins to take the threats more seriously.  Eventually the path leads her and the Russian to Ireland and a surprising conclusion.  pazt
