With A Mind To Kill by Anthony Horowitz

A James Bond Novel

After attending his former chief’s funeral, a secret agent becomes the prime suspect and is thrust into a perilous deep-cover mission behind the Iron Curtain. Forced to play the role of a defector, he must navigate a web of Soviet plots, psychological manipulation, and lingering brainwashing meant to turn him into an assassin. As loyalties blur and a dangerous attraction to his minder grows, he races to outwit both sides and reclaim his identity before he’s deployed as a weapon against his own.
