The Matchmaker

Paul Vidich

No Exit £9.99

The latest in Vidich’s terrific series of Cold

War spy thrillers takes us right up to Berlin, 1989, and the tense moments before the Wall fell. Anne Simpson is just another translator until her husband fails to return from a business trip, and she’s forced to confront the fact that he’s an East German spy with a whole lot of stolen money. What follows is a tense, smart and thoroughly believable story of revenge and redemption.
