Synopsis

"A brilliant achievement. . . .Like the best work of Greene and Le Carré, it is more than genre fiction; it is literature. . . .[*Convergence*] is the most plausible, and perhaps the best spy novel ever written by an American." -Arthur Maling, *Chicago Tribune* "An intelligent, readable novel about two kinds of intrigue-international and bureaucratic. He succeeds admirably at both tasks."-Ross Thomas, *Washington Post* "A solid, provocative first novel about the 'deadly game of espionage' . . . Thoughtfulness and human frailty take precedence over action and suspense. Irony is the prevailing mode. . . . Fuller depicts intelligence work-its technical minutiae and its vaunted goals-convincingly. And he subtly weaves various parallels into complementary layers of potential convergence."-Jeffrey Burke, *Wall Street Journal* "A fast-moving, dramatic, thinking person's spy novel."-Nelson DeMille, *Newsday*
