"Legends" tells the story of Martin Odum, disgraced CIA field agent turned private detective in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, struggling his way through a labyrinth of memories of past identities - 'legends' in CIA parlance. Is he really Martin Odum? Is he Dante Pippen, IRA explosives maven turned CIA agent? Or Lincoln Dittmann, college professor and Civil War expert? While Odum is employed to solve a case for young Russian, Stella Kastner, he struggles to untangle his true identity, drawn back into the world he left not remembering quite why, travelling from Hebron to Moscow to London to Prague, under the strains of mortal danger and psychological disorientation.

Reading it in the small hours was like gulplng a slug of Stolichnaya straight from the freezer' Literary Review 'No one has a better grasp of this shadow world than Littell, and... he is back to what he does best: walking back the cat, tracing a path through the intense complexities of intelligence and counterintelligence, which combine to form a philosophical hell' Guardian"
