| Synopsis: |
First published in 2001, Dr Berlin was the final volume in Francis Bennett's Cold War trilogy. "For all of us now the Cold War is history...What interested me as a writer was how we survived. What went on behind the scenes? ...I went looking for my own fictional explanations for historical events...". (Francis Bennett). Dr Andrei Berlin is a respected Moscow academic and Party member - also a secret informer who has sickened of his own lies and weakness. On the eve of departure to lecture in Cambridge he is asked by a disillusioned faction in the Soviet military to deliver a message to the West.
