Seeds of Treason

Ted Allbeury's brilliant new novel is a spy story, and a love story, above all a story of why men and women betray their countries and themselves.
Jan Massey is a highly successful British intelligence officer, passionate in his commitment to the fight against Communism. Until he meets Anna, and the Russians find out... To Arthur Johnson,the least successful of British soldiers, his job is a degrading necessity - but he dreams of money and power. The law-abiding civil servant Eric Mayhew has found love, a love that drives him to cold-blooded betrayal when an unfair act of authority exposes his insecurity and he feels it threatens the adoration of his young bride. Jimbo Vick, the American mathematician, believes he too has found love, with a beautiful girl he can help as he has never before helped another human being. And Kuznetsov, the Russian spy, loves his country...
They are all traitors. All play their parts in an intricate dance of betrayal and subterfuge, each convinced he acts alone, and for the best of reasons. Until the day of reckoning and truth, when some will escape, and some will survive - and some will die.
