A Murder of Quality: A George Smiley Novel (George Smiley Novels Book 2)

From theÂ New York TimesÂ bestsellingÂ author ofÂ Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy;Â Our Kind of Traitor; andÂ The Night Manager, now a television series starring Tom Hiddleston.Â John le CarrÃ©â€™s new novel, A Legacy of Spies,Â is now available.

"Fielding and Jebedee were dead, Steed-Asprey vanished. Smileyâ€”where was he?"

John le CarrÃ©'s second novel, A Murder of Quality, offers an exquisite, satirical look at an elite private school as it chronicles the early development of George Smiley.

Miss Ailsa Brimley is in a quandary. She's received a peculiar letter from Mrs. Stella Rode, saying that she fears her husbandâ€”an assistant master at Carne Schoolâ€”is trying to kill her. Reluctant to go to the police, Miss Brimley calls upon her old wartime colleague, George Smiley. Unfortunately, it's too late. Mrs. Rode has just been murdered. As Smiley takes up the investigation, he realizes that in lifeâ€”as in espionageâ€”nothing is quite what it appears.
