It was left to MICHAEL CAINE to dub him "HARRY" as the dullest first name he'd ever heard, and the producer decided that "PALMER" was also equally dull. And so the series of five films featuring actor MICHAEL CAINE as the British secret agent, "HARRY PALMER" was dubbed -- and the series of novels by LEN DEIGHTON became the "HARRY PALMER" series, of which this is the fifth, following THE IPCRESS FILE; HORSE UNDER WATER ; FUNERAL IN BERLIN; and THE BILLION DOLLAR BRAIN.
