About This Novel
"Battlefield Agent" is a novel published by le Carré in 2019, and it is also his last work during his lifetime. Nat is a forty-seven-year-old British Secret Intelligence Service agent. After years of fighting for the motherland on the underground front in a foreign country, the veteran's field career seems to have finally come to an end. But when our hero returns to London after a long absence, what greets him is a wife who has been emotionally indifferent due to years of separation, a rebellious daughter in youth who is always against him, and an 18th-line local intelligence substation for him to use his spare energy - this is the fate of a veteran. Fortunately, being a spy is not all Nat's life is about - he is also an avid badminton enthusiast. Not long after returning to China, Nat met a young golfer on the club's badminton court who was his equal and met him late. But it wasn't just the two's skills that sparked the sparks. Walking off the court, this young man's warm and sincere idealism touched Nat's half-cold heart. However, when friendship beckons to spies, danger is not far away. Nat will soon discover how this year-end rendezvous will involve him in unexpected ways and into a huge trouble.
