Agenten Liz Carlyle erfarer via en af sine kontakter, at der er noget i gære i en lille islamisk boghandel. Hun er overbevist om, at en terrorcelle er på spil, og boghandlen sættes straks under observation. Ganske overraskende trækker Liz Carlyles chef hende af opgaven og beder hende se nærmere på en anden sag: En meget pålidelig kilde fra IRA har oplyst, at efterretningstjenesten har en ”muldvarp” i sine rækker – en person som aldrig har udført en aktion, men som stadig er ideologisk fanatiker. Og så er Liz pludselig involveret i to sager, som viser sig at have en uhyggelig sammenhæng…

Agenten Liz Carlyles afdeling i MI5 får at vide, at en større terroraktion er under opsejling, og at man til formålet vil bruge en ”usynlig”, hvilket er et efterretningsord for en terrorist med britisk nationalitet, der frit kan bevæge sig frem og tilbage over landegrænserne i den vestlige verden. Men hvem er målet for terroraktionen? Og hvem og hvor er den ”usynlige”? Liz Carlyle får brug for alle sine intuitive talenter i et nervepirrende kapløb med tiden. Stella Rimington, tidligere chef for det engelske MI5, viser her, at hun er velskrivende med en særlig indlevelse i livet som moderne kvindelig agent, som hun kun kan have, fordi hun har prøvet det selv. Denne roman er et must for alle, der elsker spændings- og agentthrillers!
