About this listen

On a routine insurance job in Rome, Charlie yet again becomes a target.

Charlie Muffin is back at rock bottom. The ex-spy has had a rough few years since British intelligence first turned on him and forced him to go into hiding. He’s drinking again, forgetting things - getting soft. He hasn’t even noticed the tap on his phone. Though Charlie doesn’t know it yet, the walls are closing in again.

He takes a job for his only friend, Rupert Willoughby, who sends Charlie to Rome to check the security system for some valuable jewels. Charlie has chosen the wrong time to visit the Eternal City. There’s a mole in the British embassy there, and the agents of the East and West are homing in fast. Charlie, unlucky as always, is about to find himself caught between a very solid rock and an equally hard place.

The detail

I really enjoy the Charlie Muffin adventures. There’s obviously a serious side to each story but it’s also a little tongue in cheek.

All Roads lead to Rome

Another complicated skillful spy craft plot, where Charlie has to save the family jewels before a European Union summit can take place (if only they'd known we'd leave). Well narrated, good MCs. Good romp. ENJOYABLE

Masterful narration of this Cold War tale of treachery

Charlie Muffin is a genius character. Down at heel, yet still able to attract beautiful women as he just about manages to keep ahead of his pursuers. Intelligent and entertaining, these stories are just as relevant today. Bring on Charlie Muffin #6
