Product Details


Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

In bestseller Coonts's assured new international thriller, Tommy Carmellini, the sardonic, laid-back CIA agent who became a star in 2004's Liars & Thieves, gets a shot at the big time in his second featured outing when he's asked to drop his routine work and help find out why the director of French intelligence is making large, secret investments in the Bank of Palestine. Tommy wonders if he's the right man for the job; his own espionage experience in France is limited to being "assistant passport officer at the embassy." When his controller tells him that the new head of European Ops asked for Tommy by name, it turns out to be the unretired Jake Grafton (the longtime star of his own Coonts series), described by Carmellini as "the toughest son of a bitch wearing shoe leather." With support from Grafton; an enigmatic, seductive CIA agent, Sarah Houston; and a nifty little electronic weapon that Coonts says is really being tested, Tommy zeroes in on the high-level traitor who could do him—and the world—a lot of damage.

From AudioFile

Tommy Carmellini, former cat burglar, is tied to the straight and narrow by a simple commitment to the CIA: Serve or go to jail. Carmellini is assigned to Paris, where he works with his old boss. Their job is to find the connection between the director of the French intelligence service and his secret Al Qaeda agent. Dennis Boutsikaris packs his presentation with a dazzling variety of accents and characters of both genders. However, he is at his best as Carmellini. Boutsikaris provides a unique vocal identity with an expression and tempo that match Tommy's wiseacre attitude. With just a little imagination, listeners get the feeling they are sharing a beer with Carmellini while he tells his fascinating story. It doesn't get much better than this. T.J.M.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jake Grafton rides again, Sep 15 2006
By Cardinal47 (ottawa, ontario) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Traitor: A Novel (Hardcover)
This novel reunites Jake Grafton, former Admiral in the U.S. navy and chief protagonist in many Coonts novels, with Tommy Carmellini, former thief who has been blackmailed into working for the CIA in return for his freedom. Most of the action takes place in Paris where the G8 is about to meet.Grafton, now in charge of CIA operations for Europe, becomes aware that the Chief of French Intelligence appears to have deposited large sums into an account at the Bank of Palestine.He puts Carmellini to work to burglarize and plant bugs at the French Chief's residence and that of his mistress. Carmellini is a charming scamp who has a way with the ladies but here he spends much of his time evading the French police and Arab terrorists who want him dead.

As the G8 meeting convenes Grafton and Carmellini know there is a plot afoot to blow up the leaders and they are are scrambling to avert it. They comb the back hallways and attics of Versailles in a rush to avert disaster.

A well written and highly entertaining novel, better than some of Coonts" earlier work.
