Críticas:
"Intensely provocative. . . . Leaves the reader turning pages and looking over his or her shoulder with equal rapidity."--The Baltimore Sun"Exceptional. . . . Fesperman writes so well that it's easy to follow wherever he leads. . . . Chilling."--The Washington Post"Fesperman has mastered his genre."--San Francisco Chronicle "An unflinching look at the festering atmosphere inside a Palestinian refugee camp in Jordan."--USA Today"War correspondent Fesperman shines the light of his insider's knowledge into the dark corners of Jordan and Jerusalem in his gripping fifth thriller . . . Freeman may be an amateur spy, but Fesperman proves once again that he's a consummate professional."--Publishers Weekly"Foreign correspondent and novelist Fesperman has created another contender for his growing list of prize winners . . . The plot is complex, the sense of place powerful, and the characterization memorable . . . Fesperman expertly builds the tension."--Library Journal"More classy suspense from Fesperman."--Kirkus ReviewsPraise from the UK: "Dan Fesperman, a war correspondent with the Baltimore Sun, has served his time in Bosnia, Afghanistan and the Middle East. It shows: The Amateur Spy offers a gritty verisimilitude against a subtle political backdrop . . . Fesperman is especially good on the murky frontier where journalists, aid-workers and spies trade information, each seeking something for nothing. He is honing the genre of intelligent political thrillers. Foreign correspondents should note: they now have some new standards to match."--The Economist"Fesperman has few equals when it comes to generating tension . . . But he is equally good at characterizing his vulnerable, conflicted protagonists . . . Powerful."--Daily Express"Dan Fesperman's novels always offer interesting and thought-provoking commentary on contemporary world events and in The Amateur Spy he tackles Middle East terrorism with a story that contains a disquietingly topical element . . . A fine thriller to add to his impressive body of work."--Sunday Telegraph
