A leak is traced to a small sub-section of SIS sparking
off the inevitable security checks tensions and
suspicions. The sort of atmosphere where mistakes could be
made? For Maurice Castle it is the end of the line anyway
and time for him to retire with his African wife Sarah.
The Human Factor is Greene’s most extensive attempt to
incorporate into fiction what he had learned of espionage
when recruited by MI6 during World War II . . . What it
offers is a veteran excursion into Greene’s imaginative
world . . . Sometimes seen as a brooding prober into the
dark recesses of the soul where sins and scruples alike
fester he is equally at home in sending a narrative
careering along at break-neck pace . . . Raising the
demarcation line between ‘serious’ fiction and
fast-plotted entertainment Greene ensures that components
of both jostle energizingly together in his pages.” –from
