The November Man

A spy is never out of the game.


The November Man
James Bond, I mean Peter Devereaux was known as The November Man when he was a CIA agent. Lured out of retirement for one last mission, he must protect a valuable Russian woman who could expose a decades-long conspiracy. This assignment eventually makes him a target of his former friend and protégé. This pits master against student as the body count and explosions rise.
