"Howard Colyer's latest twist on a classic is a wonderfully watchable romp that packs a political punch to go with its comic cuts." Gary Naylor Broadwayworld.com

One agent is already dead, and the evidence of treachery is mounting. Mandrake: MI6 codename for the traitor close enough to Flint to anticipate her every move.
