The Trinity Six by Charles Cumming Book Summary

A Washington Post Notable Fiction Book of the Year

The most closely-guarded secret of the Cold War is about to be exposed – the identity of a SIXTH member of the infamous Cambridge spy ring. And people are killing for it, in Charles Cumming's bestselling thriller The Trinity Six.

London, 1992. Late one night, Edward Crane, 76, is declared dead at a London hospital. An obituary describes him only as a 'resourceful career diplomat'. But Crane was much more than that – and the circumstances surrounding his death are far from what they seem.

Fifteen years later, academic Sam Gaddis needs money. When a journalist friend asks for his help researching a possible sixth member of the notorious Trinity spy ring, Gaddis knows that she's onto a story that could turn his fortunes around. But within hours the journalist is dead, apparently from a heart attack.

Taking over her investigation, Gaddis trails a man who claims to know the truth about Edward Crane. Europe still echoes with decades of deadly disinformation on both sides of the Iron Curtain. And as Gaddis follows a series of leads across the continent, he approaches a shocking revelation – one which will rock the foundations of politics from London to Moscow…

"Cumming's novel is characterized by a gripping sense of realism. He displays a vast knowledge of spycraft and Cold War history, and the dense, three-dimensional world he crafts comes complete with seedy hotels and smoky nightclubs. The result is absolutely gripping. Taut, atmospheric and immersive—an instant classic." – Kirkus Reviews (starred review) on The Trinity Six

Good Debut. An interesting mixture of historical fiction from prewar UK with fictional post Cold War. The most chilling part is how Communists infested British elite schools in the 30s. Sam Gaddis makes for a good amateur spy. The descriptions of where he visits are good but not inspired.

Total bore. No craft or style. Anything by Le Carre shows you what is possible with the genre. Any of the Slow Horses books by Mick Herron proves there are writers who can still surprise and entertain you.

The Trinity Six. This is a well written spy thriller with some unpredictable twists ana turns. Realistic touches of human behavior give the characters depth and make them relatable. A great escape book.

A wild ride. Отлично.. This was a real treat. A globetrotting tale of an academic caught up in espionage and long-held secrets. Unlike some other glorified academics turned action heroes (i.e. Robert Langdon of the DaVinci Code) the protagonist, Samuel Gaddis is very much in over his head. He is not cool and composed, but handles the tightening of the noose much like any of us would; with mounting panic. This is the spy novel for the self-conscious, for the out-of-shape, for the neurotic. You will enjoy these characters, and you will want to read about them again. Хорошая Книга, Чарлс Комминг. Нам нужна следуюшая. Bart Varner

Phantom of Manhatten. Great well written. Characters come alive. Surprise ending

Well done. The thing I like most about this novel is the pacing. The author does not waste your time. He maintains focus and doesn't drag you off into unnecessary material or backstory.
