A master spy confronts the ghosts of his past in a world where memory is the deadliest weapon.
In Second Sight, the seventh installment of Charles McCarry's acclaimed Paul Christopher series, the legendary spy is drawn out of retirement and into a global manhunt that quickly turns personal.
U.S. agents across the Arab world are being abducted and brainwashed by a mysterious enemy wielding a mind-altering drug. When Christopher's former superior in the Outfit calls on him, he cannot refuse-even as the mission leads him back into the shadows of his own history.
From pre-Nazi Germany to Cold War battlegrounds, from Vietnam to Washington, D.C., McCarry's narrative spans continents and decades, weaving a tale of espionage, betrayal, and reckoning. At its heart is a gifted Berber woman whose visions may hold the key to Christopher's fate.
With lyrical prose and taut suspense, Second Sight explores the cost of secrets and the power of memory in a world built on deception.
