What The Night Manager is like to read
A patient, morally shadowed espionage novel in which a hotel night manager is drawn into the arms trade and a labyrinth of institutional corruption. The dread comes less from action than from the sense that every ally may be compromised. Best for: readers who want cerebral, cynical spycraft and slow-tightening tension over gunfights.
