À propos de ce produit
Product Information
A former CIA case officer's novel about two embattled spies who go to extraordinary lengths to keep their informants out of harm's way, published as vetted by the agency itself. Mark Ruttenberg may not be fit for the CIA. Early in his tenure with the agency, he learns about a former operative, Bobby Goldstein, and becomes curious about the case that led to his termination. Before he can get to the bottom of what happened, however, he's shipped off to REDACTED] , where he hobnobs with foreign diplomats and informants, who have access to REDACTED] information and contacts like the powerful General REDACTED] , in the hopes of recruiting them as agents. But, when he falls for the wrong woman, he's quickly sent back to REDACTED] , with nothing to show for his secretive work but a mysterious postcard with an unknown address on it. Who sent the postcard, and where is it supposed to lead him? Could this all be an ops test, with Mark's future hanging in the balance? Soon, he'll have to decide if righting an old wrong is worth taking a terrible and very personal risk. Published with redacted material throughout the novel, An Ordinary Spy is a riveting and dramatic portrait of modern espionage, filled with suspense, intrigue, and betrayal.

Reviews
Advance praise forAn Ordinary Spy: "It's tempting to say thatAn Ordinary Spyis extraordinary, but I'm afraid that doesn't begin to do this novel justice. In a world where everyone is always promising to reinvent genres and subgenres, Joseph Weisberg hijacks the espionage thriller and finds the grave beauty in the quotidian-and dares to write about one of the most dangerous topics of all, the search for a meaningful yet moral life."-New York Timesbestselling author Laura Lippman "Most so-called spy fiction out there today is so far from reality that we pros don't read it. Joe Weisberg is a notable exception. He nails it.An Ordinary Spy captures perfectly the spy world I lived in my whole career, how we talk, how we think, and how we operate. Joe gets it better than Clancy and is on a par with McCarry. His book is the best spy story I've read in years."-James M. Olson, former chief of CIA counterintelligence and the author ofFair Play: The Moral Dilemmas of Spying "A great read. Stunningly realistic."-Ted Price, former Deputy Director for Operations, CIA Praise for10th Grade: ANew York Times2002 Notable Book Entertainment WeeklyBest Book "This artful, devourable first novel from Joe Weisberg re-creates high school with terrifying accuracy… Weisberg deserves an A."-Los Angeles Times "A winning first novel about the awkward, anxious world of an everyday adolescent…Weisberg has written a charming, utterly America first novel."-Chicago Tribune, Advance praise for "An Ordinary Spy": "This is definitely a book to read."--"Booklist" "In two words: A masterpiece. An intelligent spy thriller written in a deft, dry style that reveals a landscape both darkly funny and unsettling. Joe Weisberg is one of our most accomplished and generous writers."-- Gary Shteyngart "I have never read an espionage novel with quite the sense of authenticity Joe Weisberg achieves in "An Ordinary Spy," He has crafted not only an engrossing and highly-original work, but a fascinating journey into a world most of us will never encounter. Chances are you'll never think about the CIA in quite the same way again."-- Arthur Golden, author of "Memoirs of a Geisha " "It's tempting to say that "An Ordinary Spy "is extraordinary, but I'm afraid that doesn't begin to do this novel justice.
