Praise for Our Game As thrilling as le Carr gets . . . The novel has the heartstop duplicity of A Perfect Spy and some of the outraged honor of The Night Manager and The Little Drummer Girl.The Boston Globe Furious in action . . . takes us by the neck on page one and never lets go.Chicago Sun-Times Irresistible . . . a sinuous plot leisurely introduced whose coils become increasingly constricting. There is crisp intelligent dialogue much of it riding an undercurrent of menace. And there is a hero who does not see himself as heroic but who struggles with inner demons as much as with the forces arrayed against him.Time Gripping.The Christian Science Monitor
