More DescriptionLooking for a page-turning spy story about Russia's relentless and continuing covert operations using "illegal residents"? Interested in Freemasonry - our last, all-but unmentioned, British taboo - both as a positive social phenomenon and how it can be, andis abused? Like books where the plot is driven by real life characters? Want a thriller where women have lead roles in the action? Then HOODWINK is the book for you!Set in the dramatic days following the collapse of the Soviet Union, Dominic Torr's fourth spy novel tells a gripping tale about a Soviet 'Special Political Action' operation to destabilise the UK. The plot moves quickly from document theft, to Mafia violence, to murder and ultimate surprise after the Russian President orders General Asseyev, SVR (successor to the KGB), to cancel operation 'Hoodwink' designed to exploit abuse of the Craft. Outdated technology (since rectified!) keeps up the suspense.HOODWINK, like Torr's other espionage novels, has rare authenticity - thanks to his years on the front lines of the 'Cold War' and as a student of Freemasonry since he stumbled on the shocking case of Masonic abuse described in the first chapter. Set in the shadow world of England's over 300,000 Freemasons, HOODWINK is not only a post Soviet spy yarn - it reveals the hold the Craft, enjoying Royal prestige, continues to have over the most sensitive areas of our society.
