Legends - A Novel of Dissimulation - Poche

Legends tells the story of Martin Odum, disgraced CIA field agent turned private detective, struggling to find his way through a labyrinth of memories of past identities - legends in CIA parlance - and caught in a contradictory wilderness of mirrors in which remembering his past and forgetting it are both deadly options. Is he really Martin Odum? Is he Dante Pippen, IRA explosives expert turned CIA agent? Maybe he is Lincoln Dittman, Civil War expert.
These men like different foods, speak different languages, and have different skills. While Odum is employed to solve a case for young Russian, Stella Kastner, he struggles to untangle his true identity, drawn back into the world he left not quite remembering why. Legends, from its unforgettable opening to its astonishing ending, once again proves Littell's unparalleled prowess as a seductive story-teller exploring the clandestine world of the secret agent.
