SSG: Spy/Spec-Ops Group discussion

The veteran reviewer Charles Kovacs has posted a five star review of the spy/thriller THE OLD SPOOK on Amazon.com. It appeared out of the blue; totally unsolicited; and blew my mind.
He writes: "This book is something between a Cold War spy story and a roman a'clef. It is about the CIA in Central America and the Caribbean and I am inclined to think of it as one of the great novels of the Cold War."

Charles Kovacs has now posted his review of THE OLD SPOOK on Goodreads, with some slight changes. Actually, I think he needs to make another change; where he states that the novel is climaxed by the Bay of Pigs, it would be more accurate to write that it reaches its climax with the Iran-Contra affair.
