Burnt-out CIA agent, Milo Weaver, is forced to head into the field one last time. Milo was once a "tourist" - an undercover agent with no home, and no identity. He has since retired and is now a mid-level manager at the CIA's New York headquarters. He's acquired a wife, a daughter, and a brownstone in Brooklyn, and left his old life behind. But when the arrest of a long-sought-after assassin sets off an investigation into one of Milo's oldest colleagues and exposes new layers of intrigue in his old cases, Milo goes back undercover to find out who's holding the strings once and for all.

"This story includes a full measure of cynicism, very little humor, and a tender conclusion. Highly recommended for all public libraries." - Library Journal, starred
