The Last Supper

By: Charles McCarry

Narrated by: Stefan Rudnicki

Charles McCarry has been called the best American espionage writer who ever lived. Now, with the re-release of his classic Paul Christopher series, comes The Last Supper, a tour-de-force that traces the evolution of the OSS and the CIA from the aftermath of World War I through World War II, Vietnam, and the Cold War.

To Paul Christopher, the world of espionage had become a region of the mad, in which men and women lived without conviction and were compelled by a craving for conspiracy. But now, he has to find the "mole" in the Outfit and demand justice from enemies, past and present. As he follows the twisting path of this secret American intelligence group, he discovers a trail of betrayal and violence that leads backward to the horrors of the Nazi era and plunges forward beyond the Vietnam War's labyrinth of lies.

Critic reviews

"The best spy novelists were once spies themselves, including le Carre, Greene, McCarry, and even Maugham." (The New York Times Book Review)

"McCarry is an ace spy novelist." (Publishers Weekly)

McCarry is a favorite

McCarry has the experience to write this high quality spy fiction. He is far superior to other writers in his genre.

The Last Supper

So hard to stop listening! Paul Christopher’s final hurrah. Love and intrigue…McCarry at his best.

Just got into this series

Excellent stuff. I'm Interested if anyone has a recommended reading order for other the novels after Last Supper.

Be aware of glitch at end of book

About 14 1/2 hours in the story jumps backwards about an hour and then goes through to finish from there. Other than that it is fantastic book. I was hooked from start to finish and can’t wait to experience more of his books

dated but a good one

Female characters in the 1980s- typically shallow. But a good listen for sure
