Descripción Paperback. Condición: Good. 608 pages. Cover wornA web of intrigue, paranoia and secrecy, which unravels as the Russian Empire crumbles. Reviews A CIA p lot to spread disinformation among Soviet southern republics is t he brainchild of aging CIA operative Edward Stone, who neglects t o inform his superiors of his plans. Stone recruits bored CIA Ist anbul bureau chief Alan Taylor and fledgling CIA agent Anna Barne s, and the three of them set off to stir up the Uzbeks, Azerbaija nis, and Armenians. Ultimately, the CIA discovers Stone's adventu re and scrubs the operation, leaving Taylor and Barnes to fend fo r themselves. At no time does this come across as a serious spy t hriller. The main characters, Taylor and Barnes, are not very app ealing, and the plot suggests little in the way of intrigue and e xcitement. If author Ignatius intended to write a hair-raising, a ction-packed spy thriller, he has missed the mark. His Agents of Innocence (LJ 9/15/87) was a success; Siro is not. Previewed in P repub Alert, LJ 12/90.-- Brian Alley, Sangamon State Univ. Lib., Springfield, Ill. The tottering Soviet empire and a U.S. whose p ower is unraveling around the globe provide the context for a spy thriller that succeeds as both stunning entertainment and search ing probe of the contemporary political chessboard. Alan Taylor, CIA chief in Istanbul, sentimental nihilist and professional malc ontent, enlists nervy, vulnerable Anna Barnes, fresh from Harvard 's department of Ottoman history, on a mission to destabilize Mos lem-dominated Soviet Central Asia. Together they recruit a crude, burned-out ex-CIA man in Athens, an Armenian dissident intellect ual and an Uzbek ex-Nazi agent who has been living among Orthodox Jews in Brooklyn. But Taylor, who keeps overstepping company rul es and ethical norms, saves the most dangerous part of the missio n for Anna, with whom he is having an affair. Ignatius ( Agents o f Innocence ) ranks with Graham Greene in his knowledge of espion age and the human heart. Petro-hustlers, arms dealers, an obnoxio us CIA psychiatrist and Islamic nationalists seeking freedom from Russian rule crowd a tricky tale of power politics and double cr oss. 75,000 first printing; $100,000 ad/promo; BOMC selection. (A pr.) YA-- A spy novel in which readers are introduced to the rut hless world of international intrigue through novice CIA agent An na Barnes. The time is 1979 and the U. S. appears to be losing th e upper hand to the Soviet Union. The Shah of Iran has just fled, and in the U. S. Embassy Americans are being held hostage. The s tability of the Middle East is wavering. In Latin America, the U. S. backed dictator of Nicaragua has sought refuge in the United States, and a treaty has just been signed with Panama to turn ove r control of the Panama Canal by the year 2000. The good old boys of the CIA are being called to task for this unsettling state of affairs by watchdog Congressional committees. The novel is fast paced, accurate, and suspenseful; the characters are memorable. I gnatius draws upon his experience as the foreign editor of the Wa shington Post to create a story that is so realistic that it is d ifficult to believe it is fiction. First-rate. --Dolores M. Stein hauer, Thomas Jefferson Sci-Tech, Fairfax County, VA. Nº de ref. del artículo: 1369ad
