In The Human Factor Graham Greene turns to the world of the Secret Service that he charted so brilliantly once before - a world peopled by lonely men cut off from the luxury of communication with their fellows.
A leak of relatively unimportant information is traced to a small sub-section of SIS. A security check is mounted, and amidst the suspicions and tensions it generates, the main characters begin to emerge. There is V Maurice Castle, past the official retiring age, \ described by one of his superiors as a dull man but brilliant with files; his African wife, Sarah; his assistant, Davis, with his taste for vintage port and the sporting life, perhaps a bad security risk.

In The Human Factor Graham Greene turns to the world of the Secret Service that he charted so brilliantly once before - a world peopled by lonely men cut off from the luxury of communication with their fellows.
A leak of relatively unimportant information is traced to a small sub-section of SIS. A security check is mounted, and amidst the suspicions and tensions it generates, the main characters begin to emerge. There is V Maurice Castle, past the official retiring age, \ described by one of his superiors as a dull man but brilliant with files; his African wife, Sarah; his assistant, Davis, with his taste for vintage port and the sporting life, perhaps a bad security risk. There is Doctor Percival, with his cheerful air of an old-fashioned family doctor, who sees espionage as a game of skill, something to be played without the restrictions normally imposed by conscience. And there is Colonel Daintry, stiff, solitary, imprisoned
\ within the secrecies imposed by his work. The Secret Service is usually the subject of a thriller. Graham Greene has made it the background of a perceptive and compassionate novel. For an officer of the service espionage can be only a part of life. Life is also the private relation to which he returns in the evening, the dangerous human factor of the title.
