The cabin reveals signs of a struggle, and \"classified\" documents, live 9 mm cartridges, and a top-secret \"burst\" satellite communications transmitter are discovered aboard. But where is the boat's owner, former CIA officer John Paisley? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne man may hold the key to finding out. Tennent \"Pete\" Bagley was once a rising star in America's spy aristocracy, and many expected he'd eventually become CIA director. But the star that burned so brightly exploded when Bagley--who suspected a mole had burrowed deep into the agency's core--was believed himself to be the mole. After a year-long investigation, Bagley was finally exonerated, but the accusations tarnished his reputation and tainted his career. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen Bagley's daughter Christina, a CIA analyst, married another intelligence officer who was the son of the man who had played a key role in the investigation into Bagley, it caused a painful rift between the two. But then came Paisley's strange death. A murder? Suicide? Or something else? Pete, now a retired spy, launches his own investigation that takes him deep into his own past and his own longtime hunt for a mole. What follows is a relentless pursuit to solve a spy story--and an inspiring tale of a man reclaiming his reputation and his family. It's a very personal quest that leads to a shocking conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Spy Who Knew Too Much\u003c\/em\u003e includes 8 pages of black-and-white photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 352\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 07, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51766555312416,"sku":"9780063054219","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/4dd3462e697b73212e1987b19b664a6e.webp?v=1780294525","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/the-spy-who-knew-too-much-an-ex-cia-officers-quest-through-a-legacy-of-betrayal-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
