Description
The thrilling sequel to Red SparrowโCIA insider Jason Matthewsโs compulsively readable New York Times bestseller and Edgar Award winnerโfeaturing Russian spy Dominika Egorova and CIA agent Nate Nash โshimmers with authenticity. The villains are richly drawn...the scenes of them on the job are beyond chillingโ (The New York Times Book Review).Captain Dominika Egorova of the Russian Intelligence Service despises the oligarchs, crooks, and thugs of Putinโs Russiaโbut what no one knows is that she is also working for the CIA. Her โsparrowโ training in the art of sexual espionage further complicates the mortal risks she must take, as does her love for her handler Nate Nashโa shared lust that is as dangerous as treason.
As Dominika expertly dodges exposure, she deals with a murderously psychotic boss, survives an Iranian assassination attempt and attempts to rescue an arrested double agentโand thwart Putinโs threatening flirtations. A grand, wildly entertaining ride through the steel-trap mind of a CIA insider, Palace of Treason is a story โas suspenseful and cinematic as the best spy moviesโ (The Philadelphia Inquirer)โone that feels fresh and so possible, in fact, that itโs doubtful this novel can ever be published in Russia.
