Grisham J.
The Broker
Аннотация
In his final hours in office, the outgoing
President grants a controversial last-minute
pardon to Joel Backman, a notorious Washington
power broker who has spent the last six years
hidden away in a federal prison. What no one
knows is that the President issues the pardon
only after receiving enormous pressure from the
CIA. It seems that Backman, in his heyday, may
have obtained secrets that compromise the
world’s most sophisticated satellite
surveillance system.
Backman is quietly smuggled out of the country
in a military cargo plane, given a new name, a
new identity, and a new home in Italy.
Eventually, after he has settled into his new
life, the CIA will leak his whereabouts to the
Israelis, the Russians, the Chinese, and the
Saudis. Then the CIA will do what it does best:
sit back and watch. The question is not whether
Backman will survive—there is no chance of
that. The question the CIA needs answered is,
Who will kill him?
