Beschreibung
'A delightful blend of humour and high tension ¿ Our Man in Havana for the twenty-first century' Mick Herron 'Twisty, topical, and often darkly comedic, Pariah is Fesperman at his best' David McCloskey, author of Damascus Station An adrenaline-fueled thriller about a disgraced comedian turned politician who takes on the role of a lifetime: infiltrating a corrupt Eastern European country to spy on their brutal dictator. After a humiliating on-set incident, Hal Knight ¿ movie star, comedian and former congressman ¿ retreats to a Caribbean island to drown his career and pride. But when CIA operatives approach him with a wild proposition ¿ to exploit the admiration of Bolrovia's despot, Nikolai Horvatz ¿ Hal seizes the chance for redemption. As Horvatz's guest of honour, Hal faces his greatest acting challenge yet. What begins as simple espionage becomes a deadly battle of wits, with consequences stretching from the palace to Washington. With Pariah, Dan Fesperman delivers a razor-sharp story of espionage, celebrity and one man's search for meaning amid power, deception and danger.
