"At the start of it all, Jonathan Pine is merely the night manager at a luxury hotel. But when a single attempt to pass on information to the British authorities - about an international businessman at the hotel with suspicious dealings - backfires terribly, and people close to Pine begin to die, he commits himself to a battle against powerful forces he cannot begin to imagine. In a chilling tale of corrupt intelligence agencies, billion-dollar price tags and the truth of the brutal arms trade, John Le Carré creates a claustrophobic world in which no one can be trusted"--Publisher's description.

First Sentence
"ON A SNOW-SWEPT January evening of 1991, Jonathan Pine, the English night manager of the Hotel Meister Palace in Zurich, forsook his office behind the reception desk and, in the grip of feelings he had not known before, took up his position in the lobby as a prelude to extending his hotel's welcome to a distinguished late arrival."
Work Description
Individual greed takes the place of old world rivalries of great nations. Inside look at the international cartel of illegal arms dealers, and drug smugglers. Lays forth an understanding of paradoxes in our unquestioning perceptions between evil and virtue! Heavy reading at best; smashing thoughts!
