Such is the title to the latest by John le Carré. USA Today calls him a “master of the spy novel.”
According to USA Today:
“With The Most Wanted Man, his 21st book, he cleverly builds an international story of intrigue — packed with biting commentary — around a contemporary hot-button issue: the post-9/11 paranoia that has the world's intelligence agencies scrambling to ferret out suspected and known terrorists at any cost.”
Publishers Weekly notes:
“The book works best in its depiction of the rivalries besetting even post-9/11 intelligence agencies that should be allies, but none of the characters is as memorable as George Smiley or Magnus Pym. Still, even a lesser le Carré effort is far above the common run of thrillers.”
