Box of 3 Le Carre bestsellers: Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, Honourable Schoolboy and Smiley's People.

TINKER TAILOR SOLIDER SPY
George Smiley, a troubled man of infinite compassion, enters a Cold War landscape of moles and lamplighters, scalphunters and pavement artists, where men are turned, burned or bought for stock. Smiley's mission is to catch a Moscow mole burrowed 30 years into the Circus itself.

HONOURABLE SCHOOLBOY
George Smiley has become chief of the battered British Secret Service. The betrayals of a Soviet double agent have riddled the spy network. Smiley wants revenge. He chooses his weapon: Jerry Westerby, 'The Honourable Schoolboy', a passionate lover and a seasoned, reckless secret agent. Westerby is pointed east, to Hong Kong. So begins the terrifying game ...'His command of detail is staggering, his straightforward, unaffected prose is superb. In short, wonderful value' The Sunday Times.

SMILEY'S PEOPLE
John le Carre's classic novels deftly navigate readers through the intricate shadow worlds of international espionage with unsurpassed skill and knowledge and have earned him -- and his hero, British Secret Service agent George Smiley -- unprecedented worldwide acclaim. Rounding off his astonishing vision of a clandestine world, master storyteller le Carre perfects his art in Smiley's People. In London at dead of night, George Smiley, sometime acting Chief of the Circus (aka the British Secret Service), is summoned from his lonely bed by news of the murder of an ex-agent. Lured back to active service, Smiley skillfully maneuvers his people -- the no-men of no-man's land -- into crisscrossing Paris, London, Germany, and Switzerland as he prepares for his own final, inevitable duel on the Berlin border with his Soviet counterpart and archenemy, Karla.
