The Tourist series

3 works, 3 primary works.

In this New York Times bestselling series of explosive suspense thrillers, Milo Weaver is a “tourist” for the CIA—an undercover agent with no home and no identity. Weaver tries to leave his life of secrets and lies behind, opting for a CIA desk job. But soon, the layers of intrigue, betrayal and manipulation pull him back in, and this reluctant spy has no choice but to return to the field and untangle the mysteries that only he can solve. Olen Steinhauer’s spy novels are full of dark secrets, webs of intrigue, and plenty of suspense and thrills.

About this author :

New York times best seller Author Olen Steinhauer grew up in Virginia, and has since lived in Georgia, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, Texas, California, Massachusetts, and New York. Outside the US, he's lived in Croatia (when it was called Yugoslavia), the Czech Republic and Italy. He also spent a year in Romania on a Fulbright grant, an experience that helped inspire his first five books. He now lives in Hungary with his wife and daughter.

He has published stories and poetry in various literary journals over the years. His first novel, The Bridge of Sighs (2003), the start of a five-book sequence chronicling Cold War Eastern Europe, one book per decade, was nominated for five awards.

The second book of the series, The Confession, garnered significant critical acclaim, and 36 Yalta Boulevard (The Vienna Assignment in the UK), made three year-end best-of lists. Liberation Movements (The Istanbul Variations in the UK), was listed for four best-of lists and was nominated for an Edgar Award for best novel of the year.
