George Smiley
âNot a page of this book is without intelligence and grace.â âThe New York Times The mole has been purged from the Circus, and George Smiley, newly-made chief of the agency, has both rebuilding and revenge in his sights. To fully eradicate the threat, Smiley must trace back the treachery to its very roots. When his investigation leads him to Hong Kongâand what appears to be a dead endâSmiley enlists Jerry Westerby, an international sports journalist and âoccasionalâ Circus asset. In the Far East, Westerby will have to untangle a web of corruption spread across a region with a reputation for testing loyalties and allegiances. The Honourable Schoolboy, sequel to the best-selling Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, continues Smileyâs hunt for the Soviet spymaster Karla. With a richly drawn plot and characters that are destined to be âburned on the brain of the readerâ (The New York Times), the sixth George Smiley novel serves as both thriller and gripping examination of the costs of espionage.
