Book Reviews of The Talbot Odyssey
Book Review: An early Nelson DeMille, and not a very good one
Summary: 2 Stars
Rather like the early Robert Parker, Nelson DeMille wasn't nearly as good when he started. Or so this book indicates. It is a long, mostly tedious, spy thriller, the early parts almost kept me from finishing it. Things pick up, but it never has the zip, or for that matter the humor of the later books.
Summary of The Talbot Odyssey
It started as a simple spy hunt. It became a desperate battle to save the west. For forty years Western intelligence agents have known a terrible secret: the Russians have a mole code-named Talbot inside the CIA. At first Talbot is suspected of killing European agents. Then a street-smart ex-cop uncovers a storm of espionage and murder on the streets of New York, while in a Long Island suburb a civic demonstration against the Russian mission masks a desperate duel of nerves and wits. Engineered by Talbot, a shadow world of suspicion and deceit is spilling onto the streets leading to a new Soviet weapon and a first-strike war plan threatening the foundations of American government. For the U.S., time is running out. For Talbot, the time is now.For forty years Western intelligence agents have known a terrible secret: the Russians have a mole--code-named Talbot--inside the CIA.
