==Plot Introduction==
Living in Queensway, London, Charles Thoroughgood has now left the Army and has enrolled with MI6. While he is undergoing basic training in espionage techniques he is asked to make contact with Victor Koslov, whom he knew briefly at Oxford University before he joined the Army. Victor is now a liaison officer attached to the Soviet Embassy and has been spotted visiting a prostitute. Thoroughgood arranges a "chance" meeting, but Victor tells him that Thoroughgood's father (now dead) was a Soviet spy. Thoroughgood reports back to his mentors, who confirm that it may be true. They also suspect that his father may have been involved in Operation Legacy, the creation of a network of secret caches hidden by the KGB in strategic locations in western countries. Thoroughgood manages to locate one such cache near his childhood home in Beaconsfield. At the conclusion of the book another cache is found in Southwold, near the Sizewell nuclear power stations.
