Thrill is Gone E036: Jefferson Morley - The Ghost: The Secret Life of CIA Spymaster James Jesus Angleton In this episode, I interview author Jefferson Morley about his book The Ghost: The Secret Life of CIA Spymaster James Jesus Angleton. Morley paints a sweeping portrait of the cunning and paranoia that defined a man who sat at the center of American intelligence from its inception. The conversation takes us from Angleton's humble beginnings in Idaho all the way through the internal mole hunt that defined the latter stages of his CIA career. Morley tells us, "Angleton's story is sort of the American version of Tinker Tailor." Give it a listen and support Jefferson Morley's work by buying a copy of his book at JeffersonMorleyBooks.com. Order a signed copy as a gift for the thriller lover in your life (that might be you).

The follow-up to Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy is massive in scope and ambitious in tone. LeCarre takes a risk, leaving the familiar fields of Europe for the cities and jungles of southeast Asia. The result is something unlike anything he'd written before, both for better and worse.

The October 3, 1977 cover featured LeCarre and a drawing of his latest release "The Honourable Schoolboy." We spend a little time chatting about "Agent Running in the Field's" debut on the bestseller list, former MI6 chief Sir Richard Dearlove's opinion on LeCarre's "corrosive" impact on the intelligence world, and where spy writing sits in the world of literature.
