That's the ticket, a period thriller with some shady mitteleuropeans, brash americans and supercilious Frenchmen. I was completely suckered, and like the narrator thought the spymaster was an idiot making stoopid decisions, and then the big reveal showed he knew all along what he was doing. More Agatha Christie or John Buchan than John Le Carre, but good fun and yet more isolation reading. i must feel better, I've just eaten a whole packet of jelly babies left over from trick or treat. THFC played their first game under Conte last night, I would have been there if I hadn't been isolating. I'm absolutely thrilled by his appointment, but I can't see it ending well, he is too big for Spurs and there is no way Levy will back him financially. Still, let's enjoy the ride. Last night we went 3-0 up, then let in 2 soft goals and had our best defender sent off 60 minutes in. somehow Vitesse managed to then get 2 of their players sent off, including the goalkeeper. Absolutely mad and thoroughly enjoyable. No idea what Conte made of it though, lets hope he can conte Spurs rather than Spurs spursing Conte
