Publisher Description
From New York Times bestselling author and veteran CIA officer Jason Matthews, the electrifying modern spy thriller Red Sparrow—also a major motion picture starring Jennifer Lawrence and Joel Edgerton!
In contemporary Russia, state intelligence officer Dominika Egorova has been drafted to become a “Sparrow”—a spy trained in the art of seduction to elicit information from their marks. She’s been assigned to Nathaniel Nash, a CIA officer who handles the organization’s most sensitive penetration of Russian intelligence. The two young intelligence officers, trained in their respective spy schools, collide in a charged atmosphere of tradecraft, deception and, inevitably, a forbidden spiral of carnal attraction that threatens their careers and the security of America’s valuable mole in Moscow.
For fans of John le Carré and Ian Fleming and featuring “high-level espionage, pulse-pounding danger, sex, double agents, and double crosses” (Nelson DeMille), Red Sparrow is a timely and electrifying thriller that is impossible to put down.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
A 33-year CIA vet, Jason Matthews knows the cloak-and-dagger life inside and out—so the original Red Sparrow is filled with real-world details that didn't make it into the Jennifer Lawrence movie. Actor Jeremy Bobb narrates this gritty audiobook, about Russian ballerina Dominika, who reluctantly trains to be a state-sanctioned seductress and engages in a dangerous dance with her CIA handler Nate. While Matthews' intimate grasp of espionage mechanics is fascinating, his characters are the real draw; the evolving relationship between Dominika and Nate kept us glued to our earphones, as lives and governments hinge on the couple's tightrope walk.
