20022312336New York: HarperCollins 2002. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/No Jacket. First edition. A near fine copy in a near fine jacket. 2002 Hard Cover. xv 317 pp. "From the bestselling author of American Tragedy and Perfect Murder Perfect Town comes an even more stunning portrayal of America's dark side. Into the Mirror is the shocking story of FBI Special Agent Robert P. Hanssen the master spy who singlehandedly created the greatest breach of security in the history of our country. Written in compelling novelistic prose Schiller re-creates a gripping portrait of Hanssen who for twenty-two years was a loving husband a devoted father of six a deeply devout Catholic and member of Opus Dei a passionate anticommunist a dedicated FBI agent -- and a traitor the likes of which the United States has never before seen. On February 18 2001 the FBI finally arrested Hanssen and charged him with selling to the Russians -- over a period of more than twenty years -- top-secret classified information. Nothing that has been reported to date about this ordinary-looking but tormented man has revealed the astonishing facts that Lawrence Schiller and Norman Mailer -- collaborators on the Pulitzer Prize-winning The Executioner's Song and Oswald's Tale -- uncovered during their nine-month investigation into the life of this complex man. In seeking to solve this almost impenetrable mystery Schiller and Mailer spent hundreds of hours interviewing members of Hanssen's family as well as his closest friends colleagues and fellow church members. They traveled to Moscow to interview a key member of the KGB who had handled the spy they knew only as "Ramon Garcia." Into the Mirror gets inside the mind of a devious and dangerously brilliant man and creates an unforgettable portrait of someone so caught up in the struggle with his own personal demons that he would betray everything he holds sacred-his wife his family his religion and his country.

2002810<p>New York: HarperCollins Publishers Inc. 2002. First Edition First Printing. SIGNED by Lawrence Schiller on the title page under which the word "and" has been written and then marked through. Based on research and interviews by Lawrence Schiller and Norman Mailer the book presents a psychological portrait of FBI agent Robert P. Hanssen who sold classified information to the KGB and its successor organization over more than 20 years. Hanssen was captured in 2001 and is serving multiple life sentences in a Colorado prison. The book is written as a novel with imagined dialogue. Schiller and Mailer were unable to interview Hanssen who was already a guest of U.S. taxpayers. Nonetheless it's a fascinating attempt to get into the mind of an American traitor especially through the device of having Hanssen talk to himself while looking at a mirror. 8vo. xv 317 pages. Near Fine with a minuscule mark to the upper board's right edge and a bump to its lower right corner in a Fine dust jacket. SCARCE signed. <br /><br />The backstory to this book is unusual and a bit convoluted. In Schiller's Author's Note he says he asked Mailer to write a screenplay for a CBS Television miniseries that Schiller would produce and direct. As Mailer was finishing the first draft of the screenplay Schiller decided to write the present book using Mailer's draft as the foundation. Schiller says he supplemented Mailer's draft with his own research. The book appeared in 2002 as did the series on CBS. The series starred William Hurt as Hanssen Mary-Louise Parker as his wife Peter Boyle as his father and David Strathairn as his best friend.</p><p>In addition to this book Schiller and Mailer also collaborated on "The Executioner's Song" and "Oswald's Tale."</p> HarperCollins Publishers Inc. books
