La dernière chanson d'amour

Description

"Nobody captures espionage quite like Beckner." - I.S. BERRY, Edgar Award-winning Author of THE PEACOCK AND THE SPARROW, A New Yorker & NPR Best Book of the Year

For the Kingstons, there is no refuge from the past-no border between family and betrayal, no line between history and blood.

From Michael Frost Beckner-the award-winning novelist and screenwriter of Spy Game, the classic Robert Redford/Brad Pitt thriller-comes his boldest experiment in espionage: Kaleidoscope, a multi-part saga expanding the Spy Game universe across three generations of CIA Kingstons, caught between the secrets they serve and the legacies they can't escape.

CHRISTMAS EVE - PART FIVE OF THE KALEIDOSCOPE SAGA

The Yule log burns at Foxtail Farm. But the season of hope-of peace, of redemption-cannot smother the ghosts clawing through the walls, or the violence racing toward them.

Melody Kingston uncovers the buried heart of her family's legacy: the Place of Blackness beneath their ancestral land-the scars of American slavery, rebellion, and betrayal that refuse to die.

Three miles away, in the diplomatic shadows of Washington, Lynn Kingston faces death for a crime she didn't commit-trapped in the ruthless power struggle between Russia, the CIA, and the ghost network known as Kalaydoskop.

Across the world, Michael Kingston is poised between exile and vengeance. His love for Lulu Voronina, the life of her child, and a brutal boar hunt in the Russian wilderness draw him deeper into the lies of his lineage-and the fracturing spiral of the world's final resource: war.

"KALEIDOSCOPE does for the CIA what The Sopranos did for the mob." - MICHAEL APTED, Oscar-nominated Director of COAL MINER'S DAUGHTER & JAMES BOND: THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH

KALEIDOSCOPE

Since the 20th century, energy has defined power. Wars are fought over it. Empires fall without it. But beneath Langley's polished surface, Silas Kingston's black project-KALEIDOSCOPE-pulls unseen strings, manipulating global oil to hold nations together... or bring them to collapse.

For three generations, the Kingston family has served that secret. It has cost them their loyalties, their futures, and themselves.

Now, as the Caspian Sea Oil Conference approaches, as power fractures across Washington, Baku, and Moscow, KALEIDOSCOPE is revealed for what it truly is: a dangerous dream of peace-or the final turn toward global destruction.

"Michael Frost Beckner is the rarest of spy novelists-a beautiful, compelling writer with a mastery of tradecraft and the brutal, human cost of espionage." - JOE WEISBERG, former CIA Officer and Emmy-winning Creator of THE AMERICANS

A saga of espionage, legacy, and the agonies of love without truth, Beckner's Kaleidoscope fuses Faulkner, Arthurian myth, and the merciless mechanics of power into a spy epic unlike any other.
