Description
A deadly game of cat and mouse — but who has the upper hand?
Eastern Europe, 1964
Three men and a woman are seated in a train carriage travelling from Istanbul to Vienna.
As they cross the Bulgarian border, a fourth man enters and joins them. That man ends up dead.
The other passengers get to work transforming a British agent into a Soviet spy – taking the dead man’s clothes and stealing his identity.
Under hypnosis, the British agent must forget all memories of his past. That life is gone, and he is now Comrade Dimitri Nickovitch. But will the months of training be enough?
Can the British agent infiltrate the Soviet camp? Or could this foray through the Iron Curtain be his last…?

The first in a series of espionage books featuring Stephen Fletcher, this is a good cold war thriller by an author new to me. I am a sucker for a good spy thriller and this is certainly one.
An original and clever plot and a good sense of time and place as the set is set in Eastern Europe in the time of the Cold War.
This was a good quick read packed with action and excitement and I will be trying the next two books in the series.

The Spy Who Swapped Shoes is the first book in a spy series by Geoffrey Davison and it is an enjoyable read with a good storyline that kept me entertained throughout
I will definitely be looking to read the other two books in the series
