At Risk by S Rimington
At a weekly anti-terrorist meeting, Liz Carlyle, MI5 Intelligence Officer, goes on alert when it is reported that an 'invisible', an unidentified British terrorist, has entered the country. This is the first indicator that something bad may be about to happen. As Liz gets more information and starts to put the pieces of the puzzle together, she realizes that a major terrorist operation is underway. In a race against time, Liz's intuitive skills, her ability to get inside the head of the 'invisible', is the best chance they have to stop them.
Stella Rimington joined the Security Service (MI5) in 1965 and during her career she worked in all the main fields of the Service's responsibilities - counter-subversion, counter-espionage and counter-terrorism - and became successively Director of all three branches. She was appointed Director-General of MI5 in 1992. She was the first woman to hold the post and the first Director-General whose name was publicly announced on appointment. Her autobiography, Open Secret, was published by Hutchinson in 2001.
