Specs:
| Release date | April 2006 |
The Tourist/Milo Weaver series, by Olen Steinhauer -- It's a well regarded literary spy novel. Pretty much each of these books made the NY Times Best Books list when it came out.
The Faithful Spy/John Wells series, by Alex Berenson -- It's more pulp-ey, but still well done. An American spy who's also Islamic infiltrating Islamic terrorist outfits.
The Expats, by Chris Pavone -- This is less globe trotting, but inherently involves travel. It's about an American couple living abroad in Luxembourg. I can't reveal too much without spoilers, but ... I guess it's safe to say that spying is involved somehow. Otherwise, I wouldn't be recommending it here. Another one that made a lot of "best books of the year" lists, including the NY Times.
The George Smiley novels, by John Le Carre -- Genre defining classics. They're cold war espionage books. And they're wonderful. The Spy Who Came in from the Cold, and Tinker Tailor are probably the most well regarded. But they're all great.
