ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

John le Carré's Smiley's People draws retired intelligence expert George Smiley back into the murky world of espionage when two seemingly disparate events unfold in Paris and Hamburg. Smiley finds himself investigating the suspicious circumstances surrounding an elderly émigré's death in London, a man with ties to his past. As Smiley delves deeper, he uncovers a complex web of deceit and long-held secrets that reach across Europe, connecting the fate of a desperate mother with the intricate operations of Cold War intelligence. The novel explores themes of loyalty and betrayal, the enduring impact of the past, and the personal sacrifices demanded by a life in the shadows.
