Descripción Hardcover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. 1st Edition. Signed by author on title page in blacksleepless fountain ink. Skinner founded his career in "asset protection" on fear. To touch anyone under his protection was to invite destruction. A savagely effective methodology, until Skinner's CIA handlers began to fear him as much as his enemies did and banished him to the hinterlands of the intelligence community. Now, an ornate and evolving cyber-terrorist attack is about to end that long exile. His asset is Jae, a roboticist with a gift for seeing the underlying system violently shaping a new era of global guerrilla warfare. At the root of it all is a young boy, the innocent seed of a plot grown in the slums of Mumbai. Brought to flower, that plot will tip the balance of world power in a perilous new direction. A combination of Le Carre spycraft with Stephenson techno-philosophy from the novelist hailed by the Washington Post as "the voice of twenty-first century crime fiction," SKINNER is Charlie Huston's masterpiece--a new kind of thriller for a new kind of world. Author of SHOTGUN RULE, CAUGHT STEALING, SLEEPLESS and THE MYSTIC ARTS OF ERASING ALL SIGNS OF DEATH, among other stellar contemporary crime novels. New, unread, first edition, first printing, opened only for signing, in new, mylar-protected dust jacket. M69. Signed by Author(s). Nº de ref. del artículo: 021036
