The amount of people who have died in this book is getting unreal. I am more hooked into it. However, part of the usual plot of a spy/thriller book where an agent has been dropped into dangerous/hostile regions is that you are not sure if they are going to survive. There is a bit that states she would later tell me, E.G he’s still alive at the end, even though he’s just been captured.

Starting to enjoy this book a bit more, my interest peaked when the main character was recruited into the CIA due to impressive language skills. Even though I don’t believe in god, loved the reference to a quote which was “ if you want to know what god thinks of money, look who he gives it too” . Onward we forge to more of this book.

So far bit confused but I am a bit tired. Going to try and stick with it as I am pilgrim was amazing. 641 pages to go
