false <![CDATA[The Increment: A Novel]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1256116037m/6050300.jpg 6050300 5 By the author of the best-selling Body of Lies, a novel that takes the reader inside the most volatile secret of the twenty-first century: the Iranian nuclear program. From a hidden enclave in the maze of Tehran, an Iranian scientist who calls himself “Dr. Ali” sends an encrypted message to the CIA. It falls to Harry Pappas to decide if it’s for real. Dr. Ali sends more secrets of the Iranian bomb program to the agency, then panics. He’s being followed, but he doesn’t know who’s onto him, and neither does Pappas. The White House is no help—they’re looking for a pretext to attack Tehran. To get his agent out, Pappas turns to a secret British spy team known as “The Increment,” whose operatives carry the modern version of the double-O “license to kill.” But the real story here is infinitely more complicated than he understands, and to get to the bottom of it he must betray his own country. The Increment is The Spy Who Came In from the Cold set in Iran, with a dose of Graham Greene’s The Human Factor to highlight the subtleties of betrayal. 6225945 book 18 5 2009 The Increment: A Novel total:73|5:6|4:28|3:30|2:8|1:1| 73 249 191 30 4 0 false false Fri May 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Nov 09 07:38:40 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 09 08:37:14 -0800 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Thu Aug 13 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 13 21:58:06 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 13 22:21:21 -0700 2009 The Increment, by David Ignatius...more...]]> 4 0 false false Mon Oct 19 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 16 23:06:12 -0700 2009 Mon Oct 19 20:13:16 -0700 2009 more...]]> 0 1 false false Sun Jun 21 06:49:58 -0700 2009 Sun Jun 21 06:49:58 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Sun Jun 21 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 22 12:43:09 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 22 12:47:01 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Wed Sep 16 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Sep 10 10:32:58 -0700 2009 Thu Sep 17 10:00:02 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Tue Jul 14 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sun Jul 12 16:59:55 -0700 2009 Tue Jul 14 12:03:12 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Sat Nov 07 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 07 14:57:46 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 15 19:53:22 -0800 2009 more...]]> 0 0 false false Mon Sep 21 13:28:26 -0700 2009 Mon Sep 21 13:28:30 -0700 2009
