{"product_id":"an-honorable-man-a-novel","title":"An Honorable Man: A Novel","description":"This heart-pounding thriller from the author of The Poet’s Game is “cold War spy fiction in the grand tradition” (Joseph Kanon, New York Time bestselling author) as it follows one man determined to find a deadly double agent in Washington, DC. Perfect for fans of Alan Furst and John le Carré.\n\nWashington DC, 1953. The Cold War is heating up; McCarthyism, in all its fear and demagoguery, is raging in the nation’s capital, and Joseph Stalin’s death has left a dangerous power vacuum in the Soviet Union.\n\nThe CIA, meanwhile, is reeling from the discovery of a double agent within their midst. Someone is selling secrets to the Soviets, compromising missions and endangering lives around the globe. The CIA director knows any news of the traitor, whose code name is Protocol, would be a national embarrassment and weaken the entire agency. He assembles an elite team to find Protocol.\n\nGeorge Mueller seems to be the perfect man to help the investigation: Yale-educated; extensive experience running missions in Eastern Europe; an operative so dedicated to his job that it left his marriage in tatters. Mueller, though, has secrets of his own, and as he digs deeper into the case, making contact with a Soviet agent, suspicion begins to fall on him, as well. Paranoia and fear spreads and until Protocol is found, no one can be trusted.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1501110411\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1501110411.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Vidich, Paul\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
