Len Deighton's classic first novel, whose protagonist is a nameless spy - later christened Harry Palmer and made famous worldwide in the iconic 1960s film starring Michael Caine. <i>The Ipcress File</i> was not only Len Deighton's first novel, it was his first bestseller and the book that broke the mould of thriller writing. When a number of scientists mysteriously disappear in Berlin, what seems to be a straightforward case rapidly becomes a journey to the heart of a dark and deadly conspiracy. It is a conspiracy that takes Len Deighton's working-class hero on a journey that will test him to the limits of his ingenuity and resolve, and call on him to prove himself as a spy at the very top of his game. The film of <i>The Ipcress File</i> gave Michael Caine one of his first and still most celebrated starring roles, while the novel itself has become a classic.
