<p><b>WATCH THE NEW SERIES OF THE NIGHT MANAGER ON IPLAYER</b><br><br><b>In <i>The Night Manager</i>, John le Carré's first post-Cold War novel, an ex-soldier helps British Intelligence penetrate the secret world of ruthless arms dealers.</b><br><br>'Le Carré is the equal of any novelist now writing in English' <i>Guardian</i><br><br>'A marvellously observed relentless tale' <i>Observer</i><br><br>At the start of it all, Jonathan Pine is merely the night manager at a luxury hotel. But when a single attempt to pass on information to the British authorities - about an international businessman at the hotel with suspicious dealings - backfires terribly, and people close to Pine begin to die, he commits himself to a battle against powerful forces he cannot begin to imagine.<br><br>In a chilling tale of corrupt intelligence agencies, billion-dollar price tags and the truth of the brutal arms trade, John le Carré creates a claustrophobic world in which no one can be trusted.<br><br>'Complex and intense ... page-turning tension' <i>San Francisco Chronicle</i><br><br>'When I was under house arrest I was helped by the books of John le Carré ... they were a journey into the wider world ... These were the journeys that made me feel that I was not really cut off from the rest of humankind' Aung San Suu Kyi<br><br>'One of those writers who will be read a century from now' Robert Harris</p>
