Book Description
======
Since the events of The Tourist (2009), Milo Weaver has served time
in prison, worked in administration, and tried to reconnect with his
wife and daughter. Butt talk therapy is hard when you're trained to
keep secrets.
When asked to return to the field, he agrees, although, because of his
disgust with the Department of Tourism (a black-ops branch of the CIA),
he plans to feed information to his father, Yevgeny Primakov, the "secret
ear" of the UN. But his handlers don't trust him, either, giving him
a series of vetting assignments that culminates in an impossible loyalty
test: the abduction and murder of a 15-year-old girl.
Ironically, Weaver is then tasked with finding a security breach that
threatens the very existence of Tourismùand the lives of the Tourists.
Seeing his own brutal compatriots as humans, he does his best to save
the thing he despises, a conundrum that pretty much sums up the shades
of gray that paint this modern-day espionage masterpiece.
The Tourist was impressive, proving that Steinhauer had the ability
to leap from the historical setting of his excellent Eastern European
quintet to a vividly imagined contemporary landscape. But this is even
better, a dazzling, dizzyingly complex world of clandestine warfare
that is complicated further by the affairs of the heart. Steinhauer
never forgets the human lives at stake, and that, perhaps, is the now-older
Weaver's flaw: he is too human, too attached, to be the perfect spy.
His failure to save the girl he was told to kill threads the whole book
like barbed wire.
From AudioFile
In this fast-paced sequel to THE TOURIST, narrator David Pittu conveys
the newest dangers faced by Milo Weaver. After being blackballed by
the CIA, Weaver finds himself compelled to rejoin the elite network
of top-secret black-ops agents called "tourists." But first he's required
to prove his loyalty by killing an innocent teenage girl in Berlin.
Pittu's intense narration reflects Weaver's conflict between his training
and his emerging insecurities about his work and family. He has an estranged
wife and a daughter not much younger than the girl he's been tasked
to abduct. Crisp and concentrated, Pittu unwinds the gripping action
with energy. As Weaver searches for a traitor among the tourists, Pittu's
characterization of the brilliant, obese German espionage administrator
adds impact.
