The Director
David Ignatius
In David Ignatius's gripping new novel, spies don't bother to steal information…they change it, permanently and invisibly.
Graham
Weber has been the director of the CIA for less than a week when a
Swiss kid in a dirty T-shirt walks into the American consulate in
Hamburg and says the agency has been hacked, and he has a list of
agents' names to prove it. This is the moment a CIA director most
dreads.
Weber turns to a charismatic (and unstable) young man named
James Morris who runs the Internet Operations Center. He's the CIA's
in-house geek. Weber launches Morris on a mole hunt unlike anything in
spy fiction—one that takes the reader into the hacker underground of
Europe and America and ends up in a landscape of paranoia and betrayal.
Like the new world of cyber-espionage from which it's drawn, The Director
is a maze of deception and double dealing, about a world where
everything is written in zeroes and ones and nothing can be trusted. The
CIA has belatedly discovered that this is not your father’s Cold War,
and Weber must play catch-up, against the clock and an unknown enemy, in
a game he does not yet understand.
