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\n\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\n\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\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Spy Who Knew Too Much\u003c\/em\u003e includes 8 pages of black-and-white photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Harper","offers":[{"title":"Spy Who Knew Too Much: An Ex-CIA Officer's Quest Through a Legacy of Betrayal | Howard Blum | Hardcover | 9780063054219 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks A 1775578","offer_id":49724970533016,"sku":"1775578","price":176.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/81rlI46fpUL.jpg?v=1787321590","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/spy-who-knew-too-much-an-ex-cia-officers-quest-through-a-legacy-of-betrayal","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
