The Tears of Autumn
Rating
The Pequod Review:
Charles McCarry (1930-2019) was a former CIA operative who wrote uncommonly intelligent spy novels on par with the best of John le Carre or Eric Ambler. The Tears of Autumn is the second book in the Paul Christopher series and explores the possibility that the JFK assassination was carried out in retaliation for the Vietnamese killings of Diem and Nhu.
