Agent Running in the Field is witty, fast-paced, occasionally farcical, and chock-full of British caricatures, leaving the reader chortling with glee at the inane perfidy of it all. The book provides an outlet, in the form of the artless Ed, for Le Carré’s views (one supposes) on Brexit, Trump and Putin, and the state of the world in general. Only the abrupt ending, with loose ends dangling, was a surprising letdown.
