Reviews

Published in the UK in 2008, this political thriller by internationally best-selling author Cumming (www.charlescumming.co.uk) recalls the work of John le Carre or even Graham Greene-a bold statement, but true. As we follow young British Intelligence agent Joe Lennox from his junior service in the last days of British rule in 1997 Hong Kong to the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, we are swept along in the unseemly and often treacherous machinations of MI6, the CIA, Islamic terrorists, and Red China. Narrator Stephen Hogan's performance is creditable, but his American accent needs some practice. One can only hope that Cumming and his tales are with us for an extended stay. Highly recommended. [Cumming's The Spanish Game and The Hidden Man are also available from Clipper Audio: Recorded Bks.-Ed.]-Scott R. DiMarco, Mansfield Univ. of Pennsylvania Lib.
