I have been reading spy novels since I was about 20 years old. I love the twists and intrigue along with heart stopping action. There are so many great authors out now that are bringing these books to the top of the charts. I am excited to share with you this new release. Sure to be a winner!
A classic spy novel with an intriguing twist, offering an insider’s view of the Mossad and authentic insight into the murky ethics and loyalties of life undercover.
“Astonishing…Among the many insights of Atir’s compelling tale is why people are drawn to this patriotic dirty work…As in the works of John le Carré and Charles McCarry, here we see that in the day-to-day spy business, it’s not so much countries that are in danger but individual human souls.” – Washington Post
The English Teacher by Yiftach Reicher Atir
Published by Penguin Books
Aug 30, 2016 | ISBN 9780143129189
Synopsis:
After attending her father’s funeral, former Mossad agent Rachel Goldschmitt empties her bank account and disappears. But when she makes a cryptic phone call to her former handler, Ehud, the Mossad sends him to track her down. Finding no leads, he must retrace her career as a spy to figure out why she abandoned Mossad before she can do any damage to Israel. But he soon discovers that after living under cover for so long, an agent’s assumed identity and her real one can blur, catching loyalty, love, and truth between them. In the midst of a high-risk, high-stakes investigation, Ehud begins to question whether he ever knew his agent at all.
In The English Teacher, Yiftach R. Atir drew on his own experience in intelligence to weave a psychologically nuanced thriller that explores the pressures of living under an assumed identity for months at a time.
