“Right now I’m reading ‘Agent Running in the Field,’ by the recently deceased John LeCarré. It’s his final work, and I bought it last year but hadn’t read it yet, so when I heard of LeCarré’s passing right before Christmas I wanted to read this, his last book. In this era of shifting truths, loss and mourning, I wanted to spend some time in London among the spies and saboteurs, with a lighter tale of espionage and betrayals and lies, mystery and pulse-pounding action. Transporting? Maybe. Dramatic? Definitely.” — NICK MANCUSO, Arundel
