  • "James Bond kann einpacken, hier kommt Milo Weaver Nachdem ihn der letzte Einsatz fast das Leben gekostet hat, spielt Agent Milo Weaver mit dem Gedanken, endgültig auszusteigen, doch der CIA entkommt man nicht. Weaver wird erneut für den aktiven Dienst rekrutiert. Um seine Loyalität zu beweisen, soll er ein 15-jähriges Mädchen töten. Weaver weigert sich und verschafft dem Mädchen heimlich eine neue Identität. Als die Aktion auffliegt, gerät er in tödliche Gefahr. Milo Weaver ist Tourist, Agent einer geheimen Unterorganisation der CIA. Touristen arbeiten allein, sie haben keine Heimat, keine Identität, keine Moral. Weaver, seit vielen Jahren im Dienst, ist längst nicht mehr hundertprozentig dabei. Er hat das Agentendasein satt, will ein bürgerliches Leben führen, doch den Fängen der CIA entkommt man nicht. Weaver lässt sich erneut für den aktiven Dienst rekrutieren, muss jedoch zunächst seine Loyalität beweisen. Kein Problem, denkt Weaver, bis er den Auftrag erhält, die 15-jährige Adriana Stanescu zu töten. Für Milo Weaver ein Ding der Unmöglichkeit. Er entführt Adriana und gibt sie in Obhut seines Vaters, um ihr ein Leben unter neuer Identität zu ermöglichen. Unterdessen versucht er herauszufinden, warum sie sterben soll. Doch wenig später wird Adriana ermordet aufgefunden, und der Verdacht fällt auf Weaver. Er gerät ins Visier der Company, und keiner weiss besser als Milo Weaver, was das bedeutet. Olen Steinhauer ist in Virginia aufgewachsen, hat mehrere Jahre in Kroatien, Tschechien und Italien verbracht und lebt heute mit seiner Familie in Budapest. Für seine Romane wurde er bereits zweimal für den 'Edgar Award' nominiert."
  • "Milo Weaver has nowhere to turn but back to the CIA in Olen Steinhauer's brilliant follow-up to the New York Times bestselling espionage novel The Tourist The Tourist, Steinhauer's first contemporary novel after his awardwinning historical series, was a runaway hit, spending three weeks on the New York Times bestseller list and garnering rave reviews from critics. Now faced with the end of his quiet, settled life, reluctant spy Milo Weaver has no choice but to turn back to his old job as a "tourist." Before he can get back to the CIA's dirty work, he has to prove his loyalty to his new bosses, who know little of Milo's background and less about who is really pulling the strings in the government above the Department of Tourism-or in the outside world, which is beginning to believe the legend of its existence. Milo is suddenly in a dangerous position, between right and wrong, between powerful self-interested men, between patriots and traitors-especially as a man who has nothing left to lose."@en

  • "Faced with the potential dissolution of his marriage and the end of his quiet, settled life, reluctant spy Milo Weaver has no choice but to return to his old job as a "tourist" for the CIA. But before he can get back to the dirty work of espionage, he has to prove his worth to his new bosses. Armed with a stack of false identities, Milo heads back to Europe, and for nearly three months every assignment is executed perfectly. Then he's instructed to kill the fifteen-year-old daughter of Moldovan immigrants, and make the body disappear. No questions. For Milo, it's an impossible task, but ignoring his handlers is equally untenable. Suddenly he's in a dangerous position, caught between right and wrong, between powerful self-interested foes, between patriots and traitors--especially now that he has nothing left to lose. --- Product Description."@en
