Berlin Game begins with a plea from "Brahms Four," one of Britain's most valuable agents stationed in East Germany: He wants to cross the Iron Curtain and come to the West. Bernard Samson, the former field agent now stationed in London, is tasked with the rescue. But before he even sets out on the mission, suspicions arise that there is a traitor in the MI6, likely one of his closest colleagues. The first in Deighton's acclaimed Game, Set, Match trilogy featuring the talented yet jaded intelligence officer Bernard Samson, Berlin Game is a riveting story of betrayal and suspicion in the Cold War.

Yes.
To whom would I recommend it?
Anyone interested in well written espionage novels, especially if they have a liking for the espionage of the Cold War era.
Did this book inspire me to do anything?
It has ensured I will be keen to read more of Len Deighton’s novels, in particular I will be reading the next two books the [[[Game, Set & Match]]] trilogy, namely [Mexico Set] and [London Match].
I really enjoyed this novel. It is an espionage story with good characterisation, and interesting plot, and a level of tension that keeps the reader slightly unnerved with anticipation of what is going to happen.
I am a great fan of the books of John Le Carré. Comparing Deighton’s work with Le Carré’s strikes me as a bit like comparing apples with oranges. Le Carré has the edge on Deighton in terms of his phraseology and plotting, and his observations are more insightful and profound than Deighton’s. However, one approaches Le Carré’s works expecting more analysis, strategy and socio-political exposés than one would be looking for in a more action packed espionage story. That being said, Deighton provides a different product from what Le Carré gives his readers.
In his afterword to Berlin Game, Deighton talks about his approach to writing and how he does a lot of planning when preparing to write a book. I particularly like how he described modern advice about writing promotes simplification of plot, less characterisation and no sub-plots, and how he came to writing before these instructions were fully formalised, hence he would probably break one or all of them. I think he did a good job by not adhering to the modern advice. ( )
