Pitched mid-way between the gritty realism of le Carré and the cliffhanging glamour of Fleming, Deighton's iconic 60s spy story sets a working-class spook tracing the kidnap of a high-ranking scientist to the other side of the world.
A high-ranking scientist has been kidnapped. A secret British intelligence agency must find out why. But as the quarry is pursued from grimy Soho to the other side of the world, what seemed a straightforward mission turns into something far more sinister.
With its sardonic, cool, working-class hero, Len Deighton's sensational debut The IPCRESS File rewrote the spy thriller and became the defining novel of 1960's London.
