The Mission Song

Having already sold over 100,000 copies in hardback, this novel returns to the West's relationship with Africa, which brought Le Carre huge success with "The Constant Gardener". Following the life of a Congolese interpreter who's been hired to attend a top secret meeting between warlords and Western financiers, it is Le Carre at his very best. 'Le Carre's eye is undimmed, his passion for his craft as strong as it ever was. He delivers a tale that few could equal and none will surpass.' "Observer"
