John le Carré - den 87-årige mesterskribent, spiongenrens grand old man - leverer med "Fri agent" endnu en spændende og højaktuel roman om den engelske spiontjeneste. Scenen er sat i London 2018. Vores ene hovedperson er Nat, en midaldrende agent på retræte. Den anden er 26-årige Ed, ranglet, med briller og alene, der kæmper desperat for at modstå den politiske turbulens, som hvirvler omkring ham (han hader Brexit og præsident Trump).

Spionromanens ubestridte mester vender tilbage med en ny koldkrigsroman - den første med George Smiley i mere end 25 år. John le Carré fletter fortid med nutid og spinder et plot lige så indviklet og fascinerende som i de to forløbere, Spionen, der kom ind for kulden og Dame konge es spion, som romanen trækker tråde tilbage til. I en historie, der er fuld af spænding, humor og moralsk ambivalens præsenterer le Carré læseren for en parade af uforglemmelige firgurer - gamle såvel som nye.

Leamas vil have hævn over den østtyske efterretningschef Mundt. Som sin sidste mission vil han gennemføre en dristig kontraspionageintrige.
