Agents of Innocence is the book that established David Ignatius's reputation as a master of the novel of contemporary espionage. Into the treacherous world of shifting alliances and arcane subterfuge comes idealistic CIA man Tom Rogers. Posted in Beirut to penetrate the PLO and recruit a high-level operative, he soon learns the heavy price of innocence in a time and place that has no use for it.

This is a well-written book. The performance was excellent giving each character a different voice and, thereby, a different personality. The book is somewhat historical fiction interweaving real time periods and events with the fictitious story.
The main character, Tom Rogers, is an affable person who has human flaws. His boss, Hoffman, is pragmatic and non conventional….someone who you might envision not seeing eye-to-eye with the bureaucracy of an agency such as the CIA. Yet at the same time, understands the rules of the game. Overall an excellent book and great narrative.

Well written story.

A beautifully written ‘fictional’ story, entangled with true events, that gives insight to the Middle East world. Not hard to believe why this world will never change and, Americans, we have failed to change ingrained values. Many interesting characters. One of the most entertaining was following Levi, an Israeli, operative as he drops and picks up information. And then there is Frank Hoffman. The writing of this character is boisterous and hilariously inappropriate. He is a character that also comes up in a later book, The Bank of Fear. Great to see some of his background story. Many characters and storylines that come together to a sad and realistic end. Just the Epilogue chapter is worth reading this book.
The narrator Peter Berkrot was brilliant. I’ve never heard any of his narrations. His performance of the epilogue is chilling.

The tender sensibilities of spies slide down a slippery slope leaving perdition in the wake of empires based on looting and pillage? Not to worry; colonialism is over, the white man’s burden is falling of its own weight. Ignatius does not need to apologize for the 1% today. Brzensky imagined the game would hold up. The 99% is cruising the information highway, watching the center as it folds. The book is well written, the reading of it wonderful. Excellent history described, maybe there’s a happier era fast coming on but other challenges will keep humanity busy.

The rest of the story

I’ll admit I almost stopped, listening in the beginning because it began so slowly. It was the character development, and the storylines that held my attention.

Interesting

in the many years since David Ignatius first wrote this book. Great historical background woven into this fiction. (I think it’s fiction!) so prescient of our current moment.
