Le Carré is one of the greatest observers of the contemporary scene, with a talent capable of provoking and disturbing us.” Independent “A delicate truth is the most ingenious thing in Le Carré's recent work.” The Times A secret anti-terrorism operation called Wildlife is being mounted in Gibraltar, the British Crown's most precious colony. The objective: capture a jihadist arms dealer. Leading the scheme is Fergus Quinn, a senior Foreign Office official. The operation is so sensitive that not even the young and idealistic Toby Bell, Quinn's right-hand man, is privy to the details. Suspecting an imminent conspiracy, Toby is quickly removed from the scene. According to official sources, Wildlife was bloodless and successful. Three years later, Toby Bell returns from a stint at the British embassy in Beirut. Upon entering his apartment, he finds an envelope left by Christian Probyn. Still suspecting the minister was hiding something important, Toby answers the unknown man's call. Sir Christopher Probyn, a retired British diplomat, has been summoned—under the codename Paul Anderson—to be Fergus Quinn's eyes and ears during the operation. After hearing the experienced Probyn's version and with information gathered surreptitiously, the young Crown official discovers that there is much more hidden in the official account. Learning that the truth could have devastating consequences, he is forced to choose between his conscience and his duty to the Service.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159309336828,"sku":"9788501403872","price":64.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/cf90fa47e77dcb4dcaa386cb1ae037dc.jpg?v=1778326724"},{"product_id":"o-jardineiro-fiel-edicao-de-bolso","title":"The Constant Gardener (Paperback)","description":"The book tells the story of Justin and Tessa Quayle.

In the icy England of the early 1970s, in the midst of the Cold War and the final moments of the collapse of the British Empire, George Smiley seems to be the right man for the job. Forced to retire from the Circus—an elite division of the British Secret Service—after the failure of a mission masterminded by his former boss, known as Control, Smiley is still trying to understand what went wrong. He is summoned by a prominent politician to hear the story of Ricki Tarr—a tough agent trained for missions in the Far East. Tarr reveals his encounter, in Hong Kong, with a Soviet agent disillusioned with the life of a spy and determined to defect. While trying to contact the British intelligence service, the woman disappears, but leaves a diary revealing a double agent infiltrated high up in the Circus. Smiley has no doubt the story is true and that this agent may have been responsible for the failure of several operations, including the one that removed him from the intelligence service, and also for the constant leaking of information to the Soviets. His mission now is to find and destroy him. This classic spy novel brings back the famous character George Smiley at his best. Intelligent and daring, he embarks on a complex plot to uncover the double agent's identity before he puts other people's lives at risk.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159432675580,"sku":"9788501088307","price":74.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/cfcdef748cbc412ecb206ab0637ddda0.jpg?v=1778321100"},{"product_id":"nosso-fiel-traidor-capa-do-filme","title":"Our Faithful Traitor (Movie Cover)","description":"The espionage thriller that inspired the film starring Ewan McGregor.

A dark war, fought in the shadows and with risks often far greater than those of open combat. Now, upon completing 50 years since its publication, the work has been given a special deluxe edition by Editora Record, with a hardcover and a new introduction written by the author. At a time when Berlin still had the wall dividing it in two, Leamas, a British spy, led a large group of Western agents operating on the Soviet side of the German city. In East Berlin, spies of many nationalities and ideologies fought silently in a veritable no man's land, where human life mattered little. At a particularly difficult moment, Leamas saw the last agent of the network he led killed while trying to escape to the western side of the city. Defeated and disillusioned, he returns to his gray London. But he can't tear himself away from his war. He finds himself back in combat, caught in the crossfire of lies, betrayals, and deceptions of the international espionage game. Once again, he is forced to penetrate the Iron Curtain for the most difficult task of his life. A mission that leaves him face to face with an unexpected situation, when love exposes him to heavy machine gun fire. THE SPY WHO CAME IN FROM THE COLD is a clever plot, with unforgettable characters and ample suspense. A novel that escapes the limitations of genre literature and survives to this day as a masterpiece by one of the greatest British writers of the second half of the 20th century. A critical success attested to by its millions of readers worldwide.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47175906296060,"sku":"9788501405166","price":74.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/93b49eb9173ba016d23ebe204f262218.jpg?v=1778326311"},{"product_id":"agente-em-campo","title":"Field agent","description":"\" \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA thrilling story of our time written by the undisputed master of espionage, John le Carré.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Nat, a 47-year-old veteran of the British Intelligence Service, believes his days as a field agent are coming to an end.
