A Tour Through My Travel‑Noir Favourites

My favourite books tend to be internationally themed novels with intrigue, gritty crime, and a dash of mystery. This has, naturally, led me to spy novels.

Quotes by Lachlan Page  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“It was when stumbling down the rain-soaked Andes wearing a woollen poncho, a handwoven sombrero, and high on ayahuasca that Oliver Jardine decided to lie for love. The lying wouldn’t be hard, he was a spy after all.”
Lachlan Page, Magical Disinformation

“I’m only doing what every intelligence officer already knows: professional and state-sanctioned deception. If governments have course for legitimate violence, why can’t I, as a Government employee, have course to legitimate lying? Besides, it’s not like I can be prosecuted. There’s an Official Secrets Act, but there’s no Official Lying Act.”
Lachlan Page, Magical Disinformation
