ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
"The Spy Who Came in from the Cold" by John le Carré presents a chilling narrative of espionage during the Cold War. It follows Alec Leamas, a weary British agent, who is seemingly put out to pasture but is actually drawn into a complex and dangerous operation, designed to undermine an East German intelligence officer, Mundt. The story explores themes of betrayal, manipulation, and the moral ambiguities of the spy world. Leamas's interactions with other characters reveal the cynical nature of espionage, where individuals are treated as expendable tools. The narrative builds suspense through a series of deceptions and double-crosses, exposing a world of political machinations and personal sacrifice. The main plot involves a plan to eliminate Fiedler and publicly rehabilitate Mundt.
