Notă biografică

Charles McCarry established an international reputation with the publication of his worldwide bestseller The Tears of Autumn in 1975, and altogether has written ten critically acclaimed espionage and crime novels featuring Paul Christopher, the most elegant of spies. Several of his books have foreshadowed events that at the time seemed too outlandish to be possible, such as 9/11 and the Bush/Gore election scandal. During the Cold War, he was an intelligence officer operating under deep cover in Europe, Africa and Asia, and he draws on his own experience when writing his books, giving them a tangible, believable feel.

Recenzii

'Second Sight is a deliciously subtle and fulfilling novel, the end of a great river of loves - more truth and emotion than any other "spy novel" of that large conspiratorial genre' Richard Condon, author of The Manchurian Candidate 'McCarry's thrillers really thrill, his political insight is praised by senior politicians and his erudition, experience and good writing turn spy stories into literature. McCarry and his dynamic alter-egos wipe the floor with the opposition' The Daily Telegraph 'The best spy novelists were once spies themselves, including le Carre, Greene, McCarry' New York Times Review of Books
