Christopher's Ghost: A Paul Christopher Novel [Audio Cassette]

Charles McCarry (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: June 1, 2007

It's a case of tiger chasing tiger as Christopher is pursued by the only man alive who can match his tradecraft or his instincts. Years previously, Christopher witnessed an unspeakable atrocity committed by an S.S. officer. Now, at the height of the Cold War, that officer has emerged to destroy the last living witness of his savage crime. As he edges toward the final confrontation with this mortal enemy, Christopher is forced to operate in the one theater he had thought he had secured--his own past. With Christopher's Ghosts, a novel whose cinematic scope and penetrating depth transcend the bounds of even the greatest works in its genre, Charles McCarry has surpassed his own matchless reputation as an espionage novelist.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"At a moment when the CIA's travails are evoking nostalgia for a golden age when it supposedly operated effectively, McCarry offers a useful reminder that such an era never existed. That alone is reason enough to welcome the return of his excellent Paul Christopher novel." --New York Times Book Review
