This follow-up to the well-received “The Tourist” finds Milo Weaver at the end of his tether with absolutely nothing to lose. He is induced to return to his old life as a “tourist” [a secret CIA subdivision] but first has to prove his “loyalty” to the organization. This is accomplished by a series of assignments, many of which are unpalatable to him.
Milo performs all but the last job, that of disposing of a young girl, instead plotting to save her life by arranging to hide her only to see her escape and be killed. The action then begins, as Milo becomes entwined in all kinds of intrigues, including international spy activities, a possible mole in the tourist organization, sex crimes and whatever else the plot can conjure.
All this makes for an exciting adventure, as Milo weighs the good and bad, plotting to make everything come out to his satisfaction.
