Ле Карре Джон "Нiчний Адмiнiстратор" (Роман)
"The Cold War is over, a new era of British intelligence has begun. Another target of justice is Richard Roper - a charismatic and intelligent British gentleman, a master manipulator, a ruthless and very clever criminal genius. He pulls off intricate deals with illegal weapons, drugs and money laundering in such a way that even a mosquito would not be able to hide his nose. He is clean before the law, however, there are still people for whom Roper is "the worst person on Earth". Will Jonathan Pine, the night manager of a luxury hotel recruited by the secret services, be able to resist him? Can Pine, a former soldier, flawlessly perform undercover work, forgetting about his feelings and weaknesses? What is hidden behind the impeccably polite and friendly smile of the hotelier? And how, finally, "spy games" can affect the players and "pawns"?
