Plot

In the labyrinth of espionage and intrigue, Charles Dobbs, a seasoned security officer, plunges into a perplexing case when his jovial conversation with Samuel Fennan, a Foreign Office official, abruptly ends in Fennan's suicide. The incident is laced with suspicion, as Fennan was recently accused of past Communist ties through an anonymous, typewritten letter. Despite the higher-ups' eagerness to dismiss the incident as mere suicide, Dobbs finds himself ensnared in a web of unexplainable anomalies. Against the backdrop of this enigma, Dobbs grapples with his personal life. His wife, despite his profound love for her, is constantly embroiled in affairs. Yet, amidst the turmoil, he finds solace in the unexpected appearance of an old friend, Dieter Frey, a war-time recruit. In a race against time and bureaucracy, Dobbs collaborates with a dedicated colleague and a sagacious retired policeman. Together, they strive to unravel the complex threads of espionage, seeking to unmask the elusive spy and uncover the truth behind Fennan's assassination. The Deadly Affair is a riveting journey through the shadowy realms of mystery, love, and betrayal, where nothing is as it appears.
