Summary

The Interrogatortells the story of one of the most secret and sensitive CIA interrogations during the U.S. War on Terror. It is the confession of former covert operative Glenn Carle, who spent almost two decades working undercover and was charged with interrogating one of the highest-profile al-Qa'ida detainees since 9/11. In what is to be the apotheosis of his career in the Directorate of Operations, Carle begins to build a rapport with his subject, but he realizes something is amiss. Is this man, kidnapped in the Middle East and spirited away to one of the CIA's infamous black sites, really the prize catch his superiors at the CIA claim he is? Carle struggles to fulfill his duty to act honorably, morally, and legally while his superiors push him to deploy more extreme methods. A haunting tale reminiscent of the work of Graham Greene and Don DeLillo, The Interrogatoris an intimate portrait of the War on Terror.
