Jim Prideaux

Jim Prideaux is a fictional character created by John le Carré. He plays a major role in Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, and is a minor character in A Legacy of Spies and Karla's Choice. His career in British intelligence (called "The Circus" in Le Carré's books) spans from World War II to 1972, when it is cut short by a botched mission in the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic. This mission, known as "Operation Testify," is the inciting event for Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.
