Produktinformationen zu „The Dream Merchant of Lisbon (ePub)“
CIA officer Shawn Reilly recruits foreign officials to spy for the United States. He thinks of his job as selling dreams to people who need money, need their egos stroked or want revenge on their bosses or government. After spending many years in the hellholes of the world, he has wound up in the twilight of his career in Lisbon, Portugal where he faces a "by the book" boss, a crumbling marriage and Boris, the chief of the Russian intelligence service in Portugal who is likewise targeting Shawn. At the same time, the Libyan intelligence service is trying to lure a Central Asian chemical weapons specialist to Libya and the Russian service is on the tail of the Kazak scientist. Boris' attractive daughter, visiting from Moscow, is swept up in the plots within plots, where as in the real world of espionage, all is not necessarily as it first appears. The various threads of intrigue come together in Lisbon. In addition to performing his professional duties Shawn is forced to face the question for an aging spy of just what really matters in life - one's duty or love. The Dream Merchant of Lisbon goes into the minds of the major players to explore the psychology of espionage, based on the author's true life experiences in that shadowy world.
Autoren-Porträt von Gene Coyle
Mr. Coyle has spent 29 years as an operations officer in the CIA's Directorate of Operations, spending almost half of that time abroad undercover. Having become an "open" employee of the Agency, he now teaches at a major university. His first hand experience in many foreign lands and knowledge of how people are actually recruited to become spies allows him to tell a fictional, yet realistic tale of espionage. He is a recipient of the CIA's Intelligence Medal of Merit.
