Barry Eisler, John LeCarre and other spy masters
Kerri Miller and I discussed our book picks today. Well, actually I mentioned an article that grabbed my attention since I am still reading A World on Fire. I will be reading it for a few weeks.
Kerri received this email from a listener last week:
Kerri,
I heard you mention that you like spy novels. Me, too! Would you share some of your favorites?

Kerri mentioned Alan Furst, John LeCarre and Barry Eisler (I think she swooned a little when she mentioned Eisler's John Rain.) What spy novels do you love?
Book pick bonus: Our guest Eloisa James says she is reading the scripts to the Rowan Atkinson TV show Black Adder.
