Summary:
This classic precursor to the modern day spy novel was recently in headlines when it was revealed that the Unabomber drew considerable inspiration from its prophetic portrait of terrorism. Written in 1907 and set in Edwardian London, The secret agent resonates just as strongly in today's world, where a handful of fanatics can still play mad politics and victimize the innocent.
