Review

Praise for The Tourist and Olen Steinhauer

“Steinhauer manages to push the genre’s darker aspects to the extreme . . . without sacrificing the propulsive forward momentum. . . . [Weaver] is the perfect hero for such a richly nuanced tale.”
---Booklist (starred review)

“Superbly accomplished at both plotting and characterization . . . compelling and hard to put down . . . highly recommended.”
---Library Journal (starred review)

“A first-class spy novel---wry, intelligent, layered . . . the kind of thing John le Carré might have written if he knew then what we know now.”
---Lee Child

“The Tourist is an absolutely superb contemporary espionage novel in the great tradition of the old masters of the genre. Olen Steinhauer is a wonderful storyteller who is smart, observant, and witty. The Tourist has what it take to become a classic.”
---Nelson DeMille

“Olen Steinhauer’s The Tourist is a complex, fast-paced spy novel populated by dozens of striking characters, each with an unexpected, shifting place in the puzzle.”
---Thomas Perry

“Every now and then a writer of thrillers or mysteries emerges who deserves to be compared with the best.”
---Chicago Tribune

 



Product Description

Milo Weaver used to be a tourist for the CIA—an undercover agent with no home, no identity—but he’s since retired from the field to become a middle-level manager at the CIA’s New York headquarters. He’s acquired a wife, a daughter, and a brownstone in Brooklyn, and he’s tried to leave his old life of secrets and lies behind. However, when the arrest of a long-sought-after assassin sets off an investigation into one of Milo’s oldest colleagues and exposes new layers of intrigue in his old cases, he has no choice but to go back undercover and find out who’s holding the strings once and for all. In The Tourist , Olen Steinhauer&mdash-twice nominated for an Edgar Award&mdash-tackles an intricate story of betrayal and manipulation, loyalty and risk in an utterly compelling novel that is both thoroughly modern and yet also reminiscent of the espionage genre’s luminaries: Len Deighton, Graham Greene, and John LeCarré.
