About this listen

Le Carré remains far in front in his field, a startlingly up-to-date storyteller who writes as well about the shadows around the power elite as anyone alive.—Publishers Weekly

Surely nobody writes this kind of novel better than le Carré. —Library Journal

Ex-con and tailor Harry Pendel is the charismatic proprietor of Pendel and Braithwaite in Panama, through whose doors everyone who is anyone in Central America passes; Andy Osnard, mysterious and fleshy, is a spy.

Andy's mission is two-pronged: to keep a watchful eye on the political manoeuvrings leading up to the American handover of the Panama Canal on December 31, 1999, and to secure for himself the immense private fortune that has until now churlishly eluded him. In Harry Pendel, he sees the perfect opportunity.

From preeminent spy novelist John le Carré, the New York Times bestselling author of A Perfect Spy and The Night Manager, The Tailor of Panama is both tightly crafted thriller and archly ironic parable (Kirkus, Starred Review). The 2001 major motion picture, directed by the lauded John Boorsman, stars Pierce Brosnan, Geoffrey Rush, and Jamie Lee Curtis.
