When Alex Velesky, a Swiss bank employee, steals information about some serious money laundering that could be important to the U.S.’s role in the conflict, he unwittingly puts a target on his back. Both former CIA operative Court Gentry and his onetime Russian lover Zoya Zakharova are on the trail of Velesky and the burner phone that contains the critical info. Before long, they both figure out they’re being hunted by mysterious forces as well. Thriller master Mark Greaney flexes all his formidable skills here, mixing daredevil espionage, international intrigue, and red-hot romance with timely geopolitics in a tightly plotted adventure.
