Body of Lies is the perfect modern spy thriller: ferociously paced, sharply plotted and morally complex. Roger Ferris is one of the CIA's soldiers in the war on terrorism. Ferris has an intense mission - to penetrate the network of a master terrorist. His plan is to prepare a body of lies, literally an imaginary CIA officer who appears to have accomplished the impossible by recruiting an agent within the enemy's ranks. This scheme binds friend and foe in a web of extraordinary subtlety and complexity, and when it begins to unravel, Ferris finds himself flying blind into a hurricane.
