    Superman?
    An interesting story about clandestine mission on behalf of the English government. The mission is believable as is the context in which it takes place. The activities of the protagonist are a real assault on credibility. The actions are beyond belief but make the first half of the book interesting and the successful accomplishments of the various side trips make for sustained reading. The balance of the book is a slow wait for successful conclusion of the mission. Unless one has a fascination with British spies and navy the book is loaded with extraneous material. I pass on recommending the book.
