Liberation Movements Audiobook

Quotes

• “It is an exhilarating and enjoyable ride.”

  — Los Angeles Times

• “Steinhauer’s first three books caught the frustration and bleakness of their Eastern European setting to heartbreaking perfection. He underscores those qualities this time with contrasting scenes of a Turkish capital bursting with life and some semblance of hope. And the irony which has colored the series to such strong effect is even more evident in Liberation Movements.”

  — Chicago Tribune

• “Steinhauer’s elegant spy novel Liberation Movements is imbued with a retro kind of cool…It is a tight, neatly structured story, built around the lives of very Cold War characters, individuals effaced by the secrecy of their professions and the cynicism of their nation. But Liberation Movements is not so cold or so neat, for all that. At its heart is a messy, human revenge plot…captivating.”

  — Esquire

• “Dazzling…a skilled writer working at the top of his form.”

  — Publishers Weekly (starred review)

• “Steinhauer’s use of alternating time periods and tenses and events happening out of sequence demand the listener’s full attention and make this work, read by Bo Foxworth and others, a complicated, taut, and suspenseful listening experience.”

  — Library Journal (audio review)

• “[A] cool and cerebral crime thriller, full of political nuance.”

  — Kirkus Reviews
