Sweet Tooth

The year is 1972. Serena Frome, a British intelligence officer, is sent on a mission that brings her into the literary world of Tom Healey, a promising young writer. First she loves his stories, then she begins to love the man. But can she maintain the fiction of her undercover life? And who is inventing whom? To answer these questions, Serena must abandon the first rule of espionage: trust no one. The award-winning author of ATONEMENT returns with a superbly deft and witty story of betrayal, intrigue and the invented self.
