From a hidden enclave in the maze of Tehran, an Iranian scientist who calls himself "Dr. Ali" sends an encrypted message to the CIA. It falls to Harry Pappas to decide if it's for real.

Dr. Ali sends more secrets of the Iranian bomb program to the agency, then panics. He's being followed, but he doesn't know who's onto him, and neither does Pappas. The White House is no help---they're looking for a pretext to attack Tehran. To get his agent out, Pappas turns to a secret British spy team known as "The Increment," whose operatives carry the modern version of the double-O "license to kill." But the real story here is infinitely more complicated than he understands, and to get to the bottom of it he must betray his own country.

The Increment is The Spy Who Came in from the Cold set in Iran, with a dose of Graham Greene's The Human Factor to highlight the subtleties of betrayal.

Absolute rubbish, hyped as being about an undercover 'SAS Black Ops' team but in fact they are hardly mentioned and entirely wrongly described. This book was written by someone with less knowledge of the special operations/intelligence world than my dead grandmother. It is even too poorly written to be included in a second rate pre adolescent boys comic book, sorry, graphical novel. The characters are shallow beyond belief, people who would not have a cat in hells chance are employed by UK intelligence services. The book is really about a useless unimaginative cia agent who has an even more feckless mi6 friend who take until the last two pages to understand to realise that they have been hoodwinked by a flamboyant double dealing business man who has been conning Iranian intelligence aided by a crazed Lebanese hitman who has fooled Mossad into thinking they killed him ovet twenty years earlier yet he has become the personal hitman investigator for Irans supreme leader without anyone realising his identity or that he in fact works for someone selling illegal equipment to Iran. Half the world's intelligence services would have seen what appears to have eluded three of the world's best intelligence agencies. I bought the book because it was hyped and alleged to be about UK clandestine ops, it is not even good enough to be a short story.
