The Reluctant Spy
In recent years, the CIA has been under sharp criticism for the interrogation techniques used in Afghanistan and Iraq. In The Reluctant Spy, former CIA operative John Kiriakou sets the record straight with a brutally honest look at his firsthand experience with the controversy over waterboarding, the pressures from inside and outside the CIA and the planning of the Iraq war. Taking us from the morning of 9/11 to the capture of senior Al-Qaeda terrorist Abu Zubaydah and beyond, it is a thrilling, often chilling, look at the Agency from the inside out.
At once a confessional, an adventure story and a chronicle of Kiriakou’s life in the CIA, The Reluctant Spy stands as an eloquent piece of testimony from a committed American patriot.
