Praise for Our Game

"As thrilling as le Carr gets . . . The novel has the heartstop duplicity of A Perfect Spy and some of the outraged honor of The Night Manager and The Little Drummer Girl."--The Boston Globe

"Furious in action . . . takes us by the neck on page one and never lets go."--Chicago Sun-Times

"Irresistible . . . a sinuous plot, leisurely introduced, whose coils become increasingly constricting. There is crisp, intelligent dialogue, much of it riding an undercurrent of menace. And there is a hero who does not see himself as heroic but who struggles with inner demons as much as with the forces arrayed against him."--Time

"Gripping."--The Christian Science Monitor
