About the book: year / On Palm Sunday, Paco Arraya receives a message that one of the SVR employees who worked with him in England and knows him in person, turned out to be a defector. There are dozens, if not hundreds more agents at risk of failure. But for Paco this means that he must leave his American family and flee to Moscow. However, he decides to go to London to try to find the traitor. And, as his handler Esquire said: “It’s his life or yours!” “On the Other Side of the Pond” is the common title of two books by Sergei Kostin from the series “Paco Arraya, Secret Agent”. Both take place in London, where Paco poses as a CIA officer and solves problems with the help of “colleagues” from the British intelligence services..
