About this listen

 Winter, 1947. Britain's secret services have been penetrated. The country is more vulnerable than ever - and Soviet leader Joseph Stalin knows it. He decides it is time to send his master of 'Special Tasks' to create extra chaos.

But Stalin has a more important motive than mere disruption. He has a man on the inside who must be protected at all costs - a communist super-spy who has the secrets of the atomic bomb at his fingertips.

Freya Bentall, a senior MI5 officer, no longer knows who to trust and is left with one option: to bring in an outsider whose loyalty is beyond question - Cambridge professor Tom Wilde. His task: to find the traitor in MI5.

Bentall has three main suspects and Wilde must get close to them all. That means delving deep into the criminal underworld, attaching himself to the cultural elite of the arts and finding a way into the extreme reaches of British politics.

As winter bites and violence erupts, Wilde faces an uphill battle to protect those he loves from merciless killers. And he knows that one slip will spell disaster for the country - and his family.©2025 Rory Clements (P)2025 Bonnier Books UK 20th Century Espionage Genre Fiction Historical Historical Fiction Military Political Spies & Politics Thriller & Suspense War & Military Stalin Soviet Union Russia

I loved the stories set during and across the backdrop of the Second World War so was curious how the sorrows would develop with that done and dusted. A Cold Wind From Moscow doesn’t disappoint and (hopefully) opens a new chapter in Tom Wilde’s adventures!

As ever, a brilliantly exciting and beautifully researched book. Simply couldn’t stop listening. And Adam Sims is, to my mind, the best performer. No-one can touch him. Longing for the next book Rory. Soon, please.

One of the best writers and the best performer

My only issue with the recording is that there were moments when the audio seemed to have been poorly edited, making the narrative confusing. The nature of this meant that mid chapter, two scenes merged into one another.

Editing issues

These books are always high quality and well-researched. The melding of fact and fiction is nicely done and never feel forced.

Consistently good series
