The Fourth Horseman (2016)
“There’d been no hint of recognition in Haaris’s eyes when he’d come face-to-face with McGarvey, exactly what Mac wanted. If Haaris had seen through the disguise it would have been impossible to get anywhere near him. But if he was pushed by a journalist, or even someone else from the CIA, he might start making mistakes, especially if there was validity to the two-day timetable suggested by the imposter in London.
It was a double-edged sword for all of them. In the first place, McGarvey knew... that Haaris wanted publicity. He needed his identity as the Messiah, and not as a high-ranking CIA operative, to be rock solid around the world—especially in London and Washington. The man could not afford to create a panic. For now he was all about peace and cooperation between the government and the Taliban.
On the other hand, if he suspected that McGarvey was a CIA spy here to gather information, Haaris would be caught between a rock and a hard place; he’d want Mac to report back to Washington that the Messiah was really a voice of stability in the region, and yet the presence of a CIA spy meant someone at Langley might suspect Haaris’s real identity.MoreLess
