The Falklands Intercept by Crispin Black
It is 11 January 2012. Before being able to deliver a speech that celebrates the 100th anniversary of Scott's expedition to the South Pole, Verney - Chief of Defence Intelligence - is found dead due to a heart attack. Or so it seems. Celia Nevinson, the head of MI5 is suspicious and asks Daniel Jacot - a colonel on the staff of the Joint Intelligence Committee - to go on a secret mission. He must dig through the secretive world of the intelligence forces, as well as the painful realm of his past as officer in the Falklands War, to discover the clandestine truth. Set against Britain's Special Relationship and its growing cooperation with the French Surete, the reader heads deep into the entrails of the Whitehall spy industry and its Byzantine functioning.
Crispin Black worked as an intelligence officer for the Ministry of Defence in and for the Cabinet Office until 2002, for which he was awarded an MBE. An expert on intelligence issues, The Falklands Intercept is his first thriller and its ideas are based, in part, on his MPhil thesis at Cambridge University.
