    Summary

    1999, UK boarding school: Alec Trevelyan, seventeen, football captain, fluent in French, Russian and subtle intimidation – is the last person who wants a new roommate.
    Dominique “Q” Harcourt, fifteen, prodigy, allergic to half the planet – is the last person the school should put in Alec’s room. And yet.
    2014, Romania: Alec Trevelyan, now MI6, kicks in a door in Bucharest and finds Q exactly where he shouldn’t be – mid-theft.
    A maddening ordeal of blind trust, weaponised bureaucracy and choosing each other on purpose.
