In John LeCarré's first novel, we meet the world's most famous undercover operative, George Smiley. The cast of characters includes a bright, twisted former hero of the German underground, a once beautiful woman with a terrifying secret, a high ranking pompous fool of a bureaucrat, and a suspect British civil servant. The protagonist, George Smiley, is bitter and weary - he has seen too much and done too much. Yet he cannot refuse one last desperate call for his services. The author, called by Time magazine, "the premier spy novelist of his time and perhaps all time," employs techniques of espionage as only he can, together with sustained action and a grandly conceived and intricately drawn plot.
