Book Review of A Most Wanted Man

A Most Wanted Man
reviewed on + 813 more book reviews


This is a fast paced novel of the war on terror, but you are left to interpret the evidence. Who is guilty? This is also a provocative novel focussing on the myriad of intelligence agencies within the host country (in this case Germany) and nations maintaining diplomatic and intelligence gathering relations with it (England, and the U.S.). Each has its own agenda: some mesh, some do not. You will walk the fine line between human rights, security, and political scuffling. Less spy mumble-jumble than many of his other books makes this one a more enjoyable read.
