Stella Rimington joined the Security Service (MI5) in 1965 and was appointed Director-General in 1992. She was the first woman to hold the post and the first Director-General whose name was publicly announced on appointment.

Following her retirement from MI5 in 1996, she became a non-executive director of Marks and Spencer and published her autobiography, Open Secret.

The first Liz Carlyle novel, At Risk, was published in 2004. Her fifth thriller, Present Danger was published last year.
