About this listen
Now a major motion picture starring Academy-Award winner Rami Malek and Emmy winners Jon Bernthal, Rachel Brosnahan, and Laurence Fishburne!
Charlie Heller is an ace cryptographer for the "Company." He's a quiet man with a quiet job in a back office. But when terrorists kill his fiancé in cold blood and the Agency decides not to pursue those responsible, Charlie's life takes an abrupt turn. He was not a blackmailer, but he will force the CIA's hand. He was not an assassin, but he will penetrate the Iron Curtain with the intent to kill. Driven by an obsessive need for revenge and targeted for elimination by the CIA itself, Heller is an amateur with a one-in-a-million chance of success.

"A taut, chilling plot and a protagonist as memorable as one of Len Deighton's, or le Carre's George Smiley." ( The New York Times Book Review)
