Synopsis

In this “absolutely brilliant, tension-filled tour de force” (Brad Thor) from New York Times bestselling author Terry Hayes, CIA spy Kane confronts an evil that could bring the world to a cataclysmic end.

If, like Kane, you’re a Denied Access Area spy for the CIA, then boundaries have no meaning. Your function is to go in, do whatever is required, and get out again—by whatever means necessary. You know when to run, when to hide—and when to shoot.

But some places don’t play by the rules. Some places are too dangerous, even for a man of Kane’s experience. The badlands where the borders of Pakistan, Iran, and Afghanistan meet are such a place—a place where violence is the only way to survive.

Kane travels there to exfiltrate a man with vital information for the safety of the West—but instead he meets an adversary who will take the world to the brink of extinction. A frightening, clever, vicious man with blood on his hands and vengeance in his heart.

Una decepción. 😐 La novela es sobre la vida de un espía de la CIA en la época actual, narrada por él mismo. Aunque sobran muchas páginas, la primera mitad está bien. Ridley es un espía especializado en "Zonas de Acceso Restringido", es decir, agente de campo en zonas peligrosas, como Rusia, Irán, Afg......more

I Am Pilgrim was and still is not only one of my favourite books but also a book that still plays on my mind nearly a couple of years after reading it…… This book is no different. It is intricately woven, it has detail after detail, all of which add something to the story. It plays on your mind, it......more

Goodreads review by Damo on April 12, 2024

After leaving espionage thriller fans of I Am Pilgrim panting for more and promising, promising, promising another, Terry Hayes’ The Year of the Locust has delivered another spellbinding spy thriller that covers vast territory. But there’s a very big caveat that must be issued before embarking on th......more

It's not where you start that counts... or even when you finish. It's the length of the journey that matters." After having an outstanding experience with Terry Hayes's previous book, I Am Pilgrim, I was very excited to read the author's next book. I was pleading and begging the workers from my local......more
