Sweet Tooth by Ian McEwan. “A spy novel told by a twenty-something MI-5 agent in the 1970s about coming into the service and her life as a young, independent woman. The novel focuses on her mission, ‘Sweet Tooth’ and how she blurs the line between work and her personal personal life. Give it a few chapters – it took me a while to get into, but once you are immersed in her world it is difficult to leave it until you’ve read the last page.”
