A new John le Carré novel titled Agent Running in the Field is slated to be published in fall 2019.

The novel, Le Carré’s 25th, will be published October next year.
Agent Running in the Field follows on from Le Carré’s 2017 novel A Legacy of Spies, which brought back his well-known character George Smiley. The author’s only work of non-fiction, The Pigeon Tunnel, was published a year earlier.
