Description:
This is a great change in pace against normal spy books. There are no wiz bangs and gorgeous women. It just revolves around old fashioned atmosphere and storytelling.
We follow the expolits of George Smiley, one of the Cold War's heroes, as he is tasked with finding a Soviet mole imbedded within MI6. He was ousted in a shake-up following the overthrow, and demise, of the previous "Control" of MI6 - another name for James Bond's M.
He is outside the current regime that the mole is part of and his search is therefore reliant on old fashioned techniques of infiltarion and intelligence gathering.
I hadn't read this in about 20 years but was swept back into Smiley's world. Le Carre has a reputation for outstanding work and this is one of his best.
I won't give the game away as I hate plot spoilers. If you want to read an authentic Cold War spy story then this is for you.

Reviews from Amazon:
I have never enjoyed a book so much. Robert Ludlum comes close with his Bourne trilogy but this book takes the spying game to even greater heights of gritty reality. Every page keeps the reader guessing where the story will go next, making you feel a part of the plot. Enticingly written, giving the reader an almost unreal closeness to the main character George Smiley, I would recomend this book to anybody who has even the slightest inkling to know how it is to live and breath as a man with two or even three different lives.
