Described by Len Deighton as ‘a classic writer of espionage fiction’, Ted Allbeury based his many acclaimed spy novels on his own real-life experiences. In World War II, he served as an intelligence officer with Special Operations Executive, and subsequently ran agents across the border between East and West Germany during the Cold War. He began writing in his fifties, and went on to pen over 40 bestselling books, five of which are dramatised here alongside three plays specially written for BBC Radio and two bonus documentaries.

In the shadowy world of espionage, the U.S. government has a secret weapon: Penumbra Division, a covert bureau where the line between right and wrong blurs in the name of national security. At the forefront is Adam Knight, its most skilled contractor. After returning from a mission with a bullet in his leg, the question looms: Can he still be the fixer the government so desperately needs? When a renowned genetic scientist is killed during a vacation in Greece, Knight is called up to pursue the murderer, who himself was thought dead two years earlier.
