Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

'A story complex and intense enough to carry both the philosophical weight and the page-turning tension that, combined, make him the supreme tale-teller he is' * San Francisco Chronicle * 'Le Carre is the equal of any novelist now writing in English' * Guardian * 'A marvellously observed relentless tale' * Observer *

Reseña del editor:

The night manager is Jonathan, orphan son of a soldier hero, too-young veteran of clandestine operations in the bandit country of South Armagh. In flight from a failed marriage and his own past, Jonathan has taken refuge in the luxury hotel trade, but finds no escape from his demons. Driven partly by a desire for atonement and partly by an inherited patriotism, Jonathan allows himself to be recruited as a British secret agent with a mission to expose the murderer of the woman he himself betrayed. THE NIGHT MANAGER is a story of majestic reach, funny, sad, captivating and constantly thrilling; a tale of wickedness and courage, love and greed, of one man's search for himself in a world going to the devil - and of two women, one murdered and one living, who mysteriously direct his journey.
