“A great and dangerous spy-game is being played today between Russian
intelligence and the CIA. Very few people know about it, but Jason
Matthews does, and his thrilling Red Sparrow takes us deep inside
this treacherous world. He’s an insider’s insider. And he is also a
masterful storyteller. I loved this book and could not put it down.
Neither will you.” —Vince Flynn
In the grand spy-tale tradition
of John le Carré…comes this shocking thriller written with insider
detail known only to a veteran CIA officer.
In present-day
Russia, ruled by blue-eyed, unblinking President Vladimir Putin, Russian
intelligence officer Dominika Egorova struggles to survive in the
post-Soviet intelligence jungle. Ordered against her will to become a
“Sparrow,” a trained seductress, Dominika is assigned to operate against
Nathaniel Nash, a young CIA officer who handles the Agency’s most
important Russian mole.
As the action careens between Russia,
Finland, Greece, Italy, and the United States, Dominika and Nate soon
collide in a duel of wills, tradecraft, and—inevitably—forbidden passion
that threatens not just their lives but those of others as well. As
secret allegiances are made and broken, Dominika and Nate’s game reaches
a deadly crossroads. Soon one of them begins a dangerous double
existence in a life-and-death operation that consumes intelligence
agencies from Moscow to Washington, DC.
Page by page, veteran CIA officer Jason Matthews’s Red Sparrow
delights, terrifies and fascinates, all while delivering an
unforgettable cast, from a sadistic Spetsnaz “mechanic” who carries out
Putin’s murderous schemes to the weary CIA Station Chief who resists
Washington “cake-eaters”. Packed with insider detail, this novel brims
with Matthews’s life experience of espionage, counterintelligence, spy
recruitment, and cyber-warfare. Brilliantly composed, Red Sparrow
is a masterful spy tale. Authentic, tense, and entertaining, this novel
introduces Jason Matthews as a major new American talent.
