Description

Gripping and moving. . . . A marvelous return to the John le Carre of old, with all the captivating characters, finely rendered landscapes, and messy complexities that have always powered his best work. -Hailed everywhere as a masterpiece of suspense, John le Carre's return to "Entertaining... Salvo may be the author's most naive creation to date, but he is also one of the most fascinating and engaging... The atmosphere of intrigue builds nicely and convincingly."-"An incendiary tale... Le Carre's understanding of how the world ticks is, as always, machete sharp." -"To categorize Le Carre, as many do, as a 'spy' novelist is to do him a disservice; he uses the world of cloak-and-dagger much as Conrad used the sea--to explore the dark places in human nature.' -"Le Carre's insight into the dense, dangerous nexus of corporate and government interests is chillingly assured."
