Nat, en veteran inom den brittiska underrättelsetjänsten, anar att hans tid som agent närmar sig sitt slut. Men ett sista uppdrag dyker upp och plötsligt befinner sig Nat i team med den briljanta Florence, som jagar en oligark med ljusskygga planer. Samtidigt blir Nat badmintonpartner med den unge Ed som vädrar sitt missnöje med att leva i en värld som befinner sig i skuggan av Trump och Brexit. Snart öppnas en dörr mot oväntade samarbeten och Nat tvingas ut på fältet igen – med både Ed och Florence – och spåren leder österut. Efter succén med den tillbakablickande Spionernas arv återvänder John le Carré nu till vår tids stora frågor. En fri agent är en både kylig och rasande samtidsskildring av en mästare i högform.

En fri agent av John le Carré er et skremmende samtidsportrett, hjerteskjærende, med mørk humor, fortalt med endeløs spenning av en av vår tids største fortellere. Nat, en førstisju år gammel veteran fra Storbritannias utenriksetterretning, tror hans dager som hemmelig agent er over. Men trusler fra hovedkvarteret i Moskva drar Nat tilbake til jobben. Han må ta over The Haven, en av London Generals nedlagte stasjoner, med en gjeng spioner av ulik kvalitet. Gruppens eneste håp er den unge Florence, som holder øye med Russlands departement og en ukrainsk oligark, som har en finger med i det russiske spillet. Nat er ikke bare spion, han er også en lidenskapelig badminton-spiller. Hans faste mandagspartner er halvparten så gammel som ham - den innadvendte og ensomme Ed. Ed hater Brexit, han hater Trump og han hater jobben sin på det sjelløse mediebyrået. Med alt hatet drar han Prue, Florence og Nat inn i et politisk sinne som vil fange dem alle.

’A work of rare brilliance’The Times Charmer, fabulist and tailor to Panama’s rich and powerful, Harry Pendel loves to tell stories. But when the British spy Andrew Osnard - a man of large appetites, for women, information and above all money - walks into his shop, Harry’s fantastical inventions take on a life of their own. Soon he finds himself out of his depth in an international game he can never hope to win. Le Carré’s savage satire on the espionage trade is set in a corrupt universe without heroes or honour, where the innocent are collateral damage and treachery plays out as tragic farce. ’A tour de force in which almost every convention of the classic spy novel is violated’The New York Times Book Review

The Night Manager

The Night Manager

Kovakantinen
In The Night Manager, an ex-soldier helps British Intelligence penetrate the secret world of ruthless arms dealers. At the start of it all, Jonathan Pine is merely the night manager at a luxury hotel. But when a single attempt to pass on information to the British authorities - about an international businessman at the hotel with suspicious dealings - backfires terribly, and people close to Pine begin to die, he commits himself to a battle against powerful forces he cannot begin to imagine. In a chilling tale of corrupt intelligence agencies, billion-dollar price tags and the truth of the brutal arms trade, John le Carré creates a claustrophobic world in which no one can be trusted. ’Le Carré is the equal of any novelist now writing in English’Guardian ’A marvellously observed relentless tale’Observer ’Complex and intense ... page-turning tension’San Francisco Chronicle ’When I was under house arrest I was helped by the books of John le Carré ... they were a journey into the wider world ...

The Russia House

John le Carre

Penguin
2020
Kovakantinen
John le Carré’s first post-glasnost spy novel, The Russia House captures the effect of a slow and uncertain thaw on ordinary people and on the shadowy puppet-masters who command them. Barley Blair is not a Service man: he is a small-time publisher, a self-destructive soul whose only loves are whisky and jazz. But it was Barley who, one drunken night at a dacha in Peredelkino during the Moscow Book Fair, was befriended by a high-ranking Soviet scientist who could be the greatest asset to the West since perestroika began, and made a promise. Nearly a year later, his drunken promise returns to haunt him. A reluctant Barley is quickly trained by British Intelligence and sent to Moscow to liaise with a go-between, the beautiful Katya. Both are lonely and disillusioned. Each is increasingly certain that if the human race is to have any future, all must betray their countries ... ’Classic le Carré’ Sunday Times

’The best English novel since the war’Philip Roth Magnus Pym - ranking diplomat, consummate Englishman, loving husband, secret agent - has vanished. Has he defected? Gone to ground? As the hunt for Pym intensifies, the secrets of his life are revealed: the people he has loved and betrayed, the unreliable con-man father who made him, the two mentors who moulded and shaped him, and now wish to claim this perfect spy as their own. Described by le Carré as his most autobiographical novel, A Perfect Spy is a devastating portrayal of a man who has played different roles for so long, he no longer knows who he is. ’Le Carré understood that espionage is an extreme version of the human comedy, even the human tragedy. A Perfect Spy will very likely remain his greatest book’New Yorker

’The book breathes life, anger and excitement’Observer Tessa Quayle, a brilliant and beautiful young social activist, has been found brutally murdered by Lake Turkana in Nairobi. The rumours are that she was faithless, careless, but her husband Justin, a reserved, garden-loving British diplomat, refuses to believe them. As he sets out to discover what really happened to Tessa, he unearths a conspiracy more disturbing, and more deadly, than he could ever have imagined. A blistering exposé of global corruption, The Constant Gardener is also the moving portrayal of a man searching for justice for the woman he has barely had time to love. ’A cracking thriller’Economist

John le Carré - den 87-årige mesterskribent, spiongenrens grand old man - leverer med Fri agent endnu en spændende og højaktuel roman om den engelske spiontjeneste. Scenen er sat i London 2018. Vores ene hovedperson er Nat, en midaldrende agent på retræte. Den anden er 26-årige Ed, ranglet, med briller og alene, der kæmper desperat for at modstå den politiske turbulens, som hvirvler omkring ham (han hader Brexit og præsident Trump). Ed opsøger Nat i den fornemme badmintonklub, hvor han holder til, og de to begynder at spille sammen ugentlig, og der udvikler sig en form for venskab. Men er der mere i det end som så? Endnu engang skruer den gamle mester en top spændende spionroman sammen - en roman med et uforudsigeligt plot og en uventet slutning skrevet med humor, vid og intelligens. Det er et indigneret og højaktuelt indlæg i den situation, Europa står i netop nu. Pressen skriver: »John le Carré (...) er spionromanens mester« ***** - Jyllands-Posten
