<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Sizzling...engrossing all the way. --<em>Los Angeles Times Book Review</em><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Hit men stalk computer analyst Lina Alwen and financial investigator Sam Hoffman in pursuit of the knowledge the pair may have regarding a late Iraqi dictator's billions. From London to Switzerland, and from Baghdad to the mysterious corners of the just-budding Internet, this spy thriller covers the map to uncover a world of corruption.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>An exciting and suspenseful novel, a worthy successor to <em>Agents of Innocence</em> and <em>Siro</em>. Its Grisham-like plot keeps the reader absorbed to the very end.--Richard Helms, former director of Central Intelligence<br><br>Mindless, crude blockbusters have left serious thriller readers starved. But David Ignatius's <em>The Bank of Fear</em> is a five-course feast! Intelligent, compelling, worldly, and as well-written as it is well-informed.--Michael M. Thomas, author of Black Money<br><br>There are doors journalists can't open. And there are doors novelists don't know enough to open. The great virtue of this novel, aside from the enthralling story it tells, is that it takes the reader through the secret doors. <em>The Bank of Fear</em> will keep you up late.--Ken Auletta<br><br>There has not been as good an espionage writer in god knows how long.-- "Chicago Sun-Times"<br><br>Wholly convincing...an efficient, exciting thriller.-- "New York Times Book Review"<br><br>A superb page-turner of the post-Cold War world--of greed, computers, money laundering, and, of course, the old standby, the CIA. Ignatius proves that the international thriller, with real villains, is alive and well in the New World Disorder.--Robert Gates, former director of Central Intelligence<br><br>A great and gripping yarn, full of secret maneuverings and surprising plot twists. David Ignatius combines his intimate familiarity with tradecraft and his storytelling skills to create a great read for those fascinated by novels of intrigue and high adventure.--William Colby, former director of Central Intelligence<br><br>Total entertainment! David Ignatius, as usual, is telling you something you don't know. This is the book of choice for your next airplane ride.--Seymour Hersh, Pulitzer prize-winning investigative journalist<br>
