Book Description
======
Sophie Kohl is living her worst nightmare. Minutes after she confesses
to her husband, a mid-level diplomat at the American embassy in Hungary,
that she had an affair while they were in Cairo, he is shot in the head
and killed.
Stan Bertolli, a Cairo-based CIA agent, has fielded his share of midnight
calls. But his heart skips a beat when he hears the voice of the only
woman he ever truly loved, calling to ask why her husband has been assassinated-
.
Omar Halawi has worked in Egyptian intelligence for years, and he knows
how to play the game. Foreign agents pass him occasional information,
he returns the favor, and everyone's happy. But the murder of a diplomat
in Hungary has ripples all the way to Cairo, and Omar must follow the
fall-out wherever it leads.
American analyst Jibril Aziz knows more about Stumbler, a covert operation
rejected by the CIA, than anyone. So when it appears someone else has
obtained a copy of the blueprints, Jibril alone knows the danger it
represents.
As these players converge in Cairo in The Cairo Affair, Olen Steinhauer's
masterful manipulations slowly unveil a portrait of a marriage, a jigsaw
puzzle of loyalty and betrayal, against a dangerous world of political
games where allegiances are never clear and outcomes are never guaranteed.-
An Amazon Best Book of the Month, March 2014: At a time when brutal
Norwegian murder mysteries are still in fashion, itÆs nice to get lost
in a brainy, page-turner of a spy story, one that feels both classic
and fresh. This is SteinhauerÆs ninth novel, the first since his successful
Tourist trilogy. A standalone, The Cairo Affair feels timely and relevant,
cleverly relying on recent world events--a Wikileaks transcript, GaddafiÆs
overthrow, the Arab Spring. More than an espionage thriller, this is
a complicated geo-political story and, at its core, the story of a flawed
marriage, full of betrayals and dangerous lies. ItÆs also an ambitious
undertaking for Steinhauer. While his Tourist series featured rogue
CIA agent Milo Weaver, The Cairo Affair is a complex narrative, entwining
the stories of multiple characters, primarily a disloyal wife, her ex-lover,
an Egyptian intelligence agent, and a CIA analyst. Pinballing across
time and place, from Hungary to Libya, Yugoslavia to Egypt, featuring
spooks named Rainman, Stumbler, and Sledgehammer, the puzzle pieces
come together in a moody, low-tech, and unpredictable reveal. Having
followed SteinhauerÆs trajectory over the years, itÆs a pleasure to
experience a writer pushing himself--into le Carre territory, no less.-
