Tell me more about Charlie Muffin. The name indicates that he shouldn't be in intelligence work.
Well, to quote from the back of the first book:

Quote:
Charlie Muffin is an oddity - an over-tired, over-drawn, over-hung middle-aged anachronism. To himself a survivor. To others an irritant. To the Army colonel, Charlie, with his crumpled suits and leaking shoes, is the final inherited embarrassment from a disgraced Department he is committed to revitalise.

Who better then to sacrifice in the capture of a KGB general who masterminds the Soviet Union's European spy network from behind the counter of his London wine importers business. So upon one man settle the hopes of East and West

Charlie Muffin.

All Charlie hopes to do is survive. On his own terms, of course.
"Charlie is marvellous creation"
