A attorney from the London finance house of One & One is shot dead on a Turkish hillside by people with whom he thought he was in business. A children's magician is asked by his loan company to explain the unsolicited appearance greater than five million pounds sterling in his young daughter's moderate trust. A freighter destined for Liverpool is boarded by Russian coast guards in the Dark colored Sea. The famous London merchant venturer "Tiger" One disappears into thin air. In One & One the writer who both epitomizes and transcends the book of espionage starts with a haunting set part, then establishes a collection of happenings whose connections are mysterious, sophisticated, and compelling. This is a tale of corrupt liaisons between criminal elements in the new Russian expresses and the world of respectable finance in the West. Le Carré's finest book in years, it is also an intimate portrait of two family members: one Russian, the other British; one trading illicit goods, the other laundering the profits; one betrayed with a son-in-law, the other betrayed, and redeemed, with a son. This is territory le Carré recognizes much better than anyone. Masterful and prescient, he is writing at the top of his creative forces, and Oliver One, the central protagonist, is one of is own most fascinating characters yet.
