## Descripción

Brought to you by Penguin. This Penguin Classic is performed by Luke Norris, known for his role in BBC drama Poldark . This definitive recording includes an Introduction by Michael Newton. In the only novel Conrad set in London, The Secret Agent communicates a profoundly ironic view of human affairs. The story is woven around an attack on the Greenwich Observatory in 1894 masterminded by Verloc, a Russian spy working for the police, and ostensibly a member of an anarchist group in Soho. His masters instruct him to discredit the anarchists in a humiliating fashion, and when his evil plan goes horribly awry, Verlac must deal with the repercussions of his actions.
