Description for THE NEAREST EXIT by Olen Steinhauer: Faced with the potential dissolution of his marriage and the end of his quiet, settled life, reluctant spy Milo Weaver has no c hoice but to return to his old job as a "tourist" for the CIA. But before he can get back to the dirty work of espionage, he has to prove his worth to his new bosses. Armed with a stack of false identities, Milo heads back to Europe, and for nearly three months every assignment is executed perfectly. Then he's instructed to kill the fifteen-year-old daughter of Moldovan immigrants, and make the body disappear. No questions. For Milo, it's an impossible task, but ignoring his handlers is equally untenable. Suddenly he's in a dangerous position, caught between right and wrong, between powerful self-interested foes, between patriots and traitors -- especially now that he has nothing left to lose... this is #2 in Milo Weaver Series.
