Although this is touted as one of Le Carre's best I found it a bit weak. If the British argot doesn't get to you, the slow development of the story will. The protagonist doesn't really begin to take hold of the story until a hundred pages into the book. Justine, the constant gardener, is a complex character as is his wife, the murdered Tessa. The problem that she is trying to stop is the testing of a new drug for TB by a multinational that is killing some of the test subjects. The collusion of the local government and even British Intelligence, bought off by the drug company, sounds only too plausible and is a well-told story. The ending is a bit weak and somewhat philosophical rather than definitive.
