Crisis constantly lurks around the corner, monitored by spies who are always with us. In this breathtaking thriller, a spectacular mole hunt is under way, one that involves not just the CIA—"The Company" to insiders—but Mossad, MI6, and the KGB as well.

Robert Littell, master of the espionage novel, has crafted an exciting story of agents imprisoned in double lives, fighting an enemy that is amoral, elusive, and formidable. The Company also lays bare a warfare within the CIA itself, adding another dimension to the spy vs. spy game.

Although I guessed who the real spy was long before he was uncovered, it did not detract in any way from my enjoyment of this audiobook which seamlessly mixes truth with fiction.

I don't think I can say more than is already said in the Publisher's Summary with which I completely agree.

A saga style book where we follow thwe adventures of CIA agents as they become wise in the ways of the world of intelligence. We all know that intelligence is mainly routine sifting and searching so this book with its emphasis on action and plotting is far from dull.
Nicely narrated and at no time did the fiction falterso a good listen.

I have now listened to this twice and shall listen again quite soon. It is a fascinating story of the CIA - interweaving facts and fiction - so that I almost feel as if I worked there myself!
The reader is great - does all the accents wonderfully and his voice never becomes boring.
The interesting thing is that most of the book is in dialogue form - or seems to be......
