The IPCRESS File by Len Deighton. James Bond-alike with less misogyny and gadgets, more MOD machinations and clever plotting.
I would have liked to have given this a deeper reading, but took it as light entertainment and enjoyed it enormously as such.

Watching Ipcress File with dad, remember reading Len Deighton in my teens. Reached the classic 60s brainwashing scene, something you rarely see in a modern spy film, but laundering of cognitive processes was all the rage back then.
