AGENT 6
How far would you go to solve a crime against your family?
It is 1965. Leo Demidov, a former secret police agent, is forbidden to travel with his wife and daughters from Moscow to New York. They are part of a "Peace Tour," meant to foster closer relations between the two Cold War enemies. On the tour, Leo's family is caught up in a conspiracy and betrayal that ends in tragedy. In the horrible aftermath, Leo demands one thing: that he be allowed to investigate and find the attacker that struck at the heart of his family on foreign soil. From the highest levels of the Soviet government, he is told No, that is impossible. Leo is haunted by the question: what happened in New York? In a surprising, epic story that spans decades and continents-from 1950s Moscow to 1960s America to the Soviet war in Afghanistan in the 1980s-Leo's long pursuit of justice will force him to confront everything he ever thought he knew about his country, his family, and himself.

评分拖了很长时间,终于把Tom Rob Smith的苏联三部曲看完了。想起第一次看《Child 44》,还是在2010年。记得当时我还在读研究生,一直到现在将近有七年时光,期间三部曲的后两本《The Secret Speech》和《Agent 6》陆续出版,而我自己也有幸翻译了简体中文版的[《秘密演讲》]。从读...
评分这里面融入了很多我喜欢的元素。。。不知道为什么,看到了苏联,就觉得回到了小时候,我唯一开心的时候。当然,如今长大了,知道的多了,就不再那么喜欢俄国了。
评分因为Child 44 而继续读 Tom Rob Smith的三部曲之一,Agent 6。读书的过程中,心中一直有个疑问:Who Is Agent 6? Where Is He or She? What's His or Her Mission? 直至几乎结尾,谜底才被揭开。说实话,略有失望。小说的政治倾向性很明显,跨度很大,但略显拖沓。
