George Smiley se ha convertido en el jefe del maltrecho servicio secreto británico en el tiempo en que las traiciones de un agente doble soviético han acribillado la red de espionaje. Smiley quiere venganza. Su método es el ataque, la presa es Karla, el escenario de la batalla es Hong Kong y el arma elegida es el honorable Jerry Westerby, el brazo oriental, amante apasionado y agente secreto experimentado y temerario. Y comienza el juego aterrador…

John le Carré, pseudonym of David John Moore Cornwell (1931–2020), was a British novelist known for redefining espionage literature. Before fully dedicating himself to writing, he worked for the British intelligence services MI5 and MI6 during the Cold War, an experience that deeply influenced his works. His narrative is characterized by a realistic and morally complex view of espionage, moving away from the genre's stereotypes. He declined official awards and honors, though he was awarded the Goethe Medal in 2011

Among his most notable novels are The Spy Who Came in from the Cold (1963), Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (1974), The Little Drummer Girl (1983), The Constant Gardener (2001), and The Tailor of Panama (1996). Many of these works have been adapted into film and television, solidifying his legacy in popular culture. His most iconic character, agent George Smiley, features in several of his novels and symbolizes moral complexity in the world of espionage.
