Publisher Description

In what Christopher Lehmann-Haupt of The New York Times called the plot of plots, Robert Littell has created the CIA legends Francis and Carroll, dubbed The Sisters Death and Night by their cohorts. But few know what these enigmatic and extremely dangerous operatives do. They plot - and they're plotting the perfect crime. They've located the perfect pawn, the Potter, the exiled ex-head of the KGB sleeper school - and, with artful deception, the Sisters coerce him into betraying his last and best sleeper, the man he considers his son. Once awakened, this sleeper, an assassin living secretly in the U.S., will launch a mission of death - unless the Potter, in a desperate race against time, can stop his protegé from committing the Sisters' perfect and world-shattering crime.

    " Strange book, all of the characters were sort of fascinatingly disturbing. Enjoyable but it left me scratching my head wondering what the author was trying to say about people in the subtext below the spy story. Definitely need to read another Littell to see what he's getting at "

    " Maybe 3.5 stars, maybe. Spy vs spy. Country vs country. Sisters and cousins. Me, the enemy is me. Clever, but almost an overly forced clever. Too many twos. Don, maybe I was ruined because I read a different and better version of the same book written by Delillo. Still, glad I read it still. "
